You guys might be a little more charitable. You're starting to sound like the trolls in TechCrunch comment threads.

PG, I think it is a good business model with a huge opportunity and they are going to do good. I am just saying it was not something I was expecting to come out as a winner of TC50.

Congratulations to RedBeacon team and TC50.

superman does good. red beacon is doing well

TC50 is supposed to be for the best 50 companies TC gets. Shouldn't the winner of the event be something substantial? I mean compare it to Mint...they aren't even on the same level.

Can you honestly say that these guys will still be in business a year from now? Shouldn't that be a requirement for the winner of the "best tech conference"?

These are companies who are launching at the event. Things change after the first user, even business plans. Right now all one can do is take a hard look at the individuals, and see if they have what it takes to make it.

And frankly, this is business, not a spectator sport.
