I would <a href="http://blog.europe20.com/2008/03/27/startup-competition-lineup-at-thenextweb-conference/" rel="nofollow">agree </a>with most of your judgements, Mike. Except for andUnite, which I find quite interesting. And also, I understand that there is going to be two more startups selected next week, as a special <a href="http://thenextweb.org/2008/03/24/thenextweb2008-update-24-demo-companies/" rel="nofollow">hat trick</a> (and the numbers don't seem to add up : we've got 23 already, plus 2, that would make 25, not 24, but hey that's Amsterdam magic I guess ;-) It’s gonna be interesting.
