It seems the way VC's throw money at pure unadulterated hype, don't count them out just yet. So long as you're good at marketing, you don't have to be good at development; you don't have to have a good idea; you don't have to have a product that does what you've promised, works or even exists... they'll shower a literal pile of shit with money until it sparkles like a Faberge egg if you can only generate buzz.
