Just another sign that there's a huge VC bubble forming in the Valley.

Yes, there are plenty of legitimate companies that will generate substantial value for VCs, but when you see money being thrown at companies who exist to make infographics it smells of trouble.

We exist to make software that makes infographics and visualizations so that the designers can move on to next-level work like doing more research, better analysis, more interactivity. We coordinate these projects, but don't make infographics ourselves.

That's a huge opportunity... software to make infographics... lol. What are VC's thinking and what were YOU thinking. How Not To Launch 101. Site is unusable, 15 seconds are up.

No doubt. How any VC thinks this type of company would sell for $1-2mm+ is beyond me. This is a profit type of company run out of a basement, not a VC investment. Yet somehow they got some top tier angels... Sometimes it's more about who you know.
