This isn't related to this post in particular (congrats to the Honest Co. team), but I think HN would be a better place without constantly cross-posting funding announcements.

But where else would we post our thinly-veiled plugs as compliments?

"I've known Jessica since we bumped into each other in a co-working space five years ago. Literally haven't spoken since that day, but I always knew her and her team were destined for great things. So congratulations to an amazing team, I hope my startup ThingStuff (www.thingstuff.com) will be as successful as them!

P.S. Jessica if you are ever in the San Francisco area, we need to catch up!"

you should copyright that and start your own thinly-veiled-plugs-as-compliments startup template generator written in python|rails|scala|go|clojure. veild.us?
