I'm sure people can find the team page fun, but I saw it as uninformative; I see three co-founders and all I know at a glance is that one guy used to be with BuzzFeed. The front page of the site is also fun, but it's also informative.

I was also a little confused about why the LinkedIn URLs don't point to the public page but rather the URL used by those already logged into LinkedIn. I'm thinking this was probably just overlooked. I happened to be logged out, clicked on one of the icons, was required to log in, and because I use the 2-step authentication I wanted to just get back to browsing HN because all I had was just a low level of curiosity about the people behind the product.

Example: The icon for Peter Marquis links to http://www.linkedin.com/profile/view?id=32333289 while it could have been linking to http://www.linkedin.com/pub/pete-marquis/a/9b3/489 (or better yet the /in/ URL which would give all users the information, whether they're logged in or not.)

Bookmarked the site. I'll check it out soon enough. Good luck!
