More about ChubbyBrain:
According to the site's About Us page, ChubbyBrain launched in February 2009 "to democratize startup and investor information to make it more widely available...it gathers input from some of the smartest people in the world, e.g., startup founders, VCs and angel investors and the community-at-large of technology / startup / innovation enthusiasts. And so we thought that ChubbyBrain properly captured the fact that the one common thread amongst the people from any of these groups (startup, investor, enthusiast) is a big intellect."
