Add some color to the logo

depends, I believe it will depend on what the user has to type.

CAPTCHA's are always annoying, no matter what. So why not make some money. Lots of new companies out there offering CAPTCHA ads.

This is cooler than color. And im willing to bet it took 41 million dollars less...

Couldn't agree more. Number one thing is show them how its valuable to them. Make sure your pitch answers the question: Is it worth their time?

A game like this is truly innovative and amazing. It is so interesting to throw people into a world and see what they do first and what they build (how they behave). I also consider this a drug cuz its highly addictive!!

This company and service is absolutely amazing. Points for the amazing UI/UX

A majority of us here are wanna be short sleepers. And we make do with that

I got an amusing "get naked now"

I think this blog post title doesn't cover everything in your post. Yes it is evident that brilliant people worked together and made something brilliant. Then you go on to say if you have no friends or family use the social web/world. None of the successful partnerships you mentioned met through YOUR recommended way of finding partnerships.

Personally I don't recommend going out and look for partnerships. Its an easy way to get into a co-founder battle or have different interests that you only discover 2 months later. All those successful partnerships named early on are people who knew each other better than they knew themselves or just worked really well together. Going out and just networking isn't going to get you such a relationship. What you need to do is form a deep relationship and constantly shoot the shit and work on projects together, that way you can determine weather you work well or not (schools and living together are all things you can do this at, and is also common among all the successful partnerships mentioned above).

However the system relies on upvotes to see good articles from the bad ones. So the system would still rely on upvotes but perhaps not give karma? #my2cents
