I’d be surprised if you’ve avoided mention of Techcrunch’s TC50, but if so, it’s one of the biggest conferences and events of the tech year, with startups able to pitch for a cash prize, investors, and the like’s of Kevin Rose in attendance.

Although the Techcrunch interview mainly focuses on Digg, they do ask whether or not starting Pownce was a mistake – skip to 7.26 if you just want the microblogging:

Many apologies, but although I said my exclusive interview with Blippr founders Jonathan and Chris would be published today, a late night scheduling mistake saw it appear yesterday. And by the time I’d got online and realised, I thought it would be pointless to put it back offline for a day simply to avoid looking stupid.

I can only blame the fact I was still excited about getting two interviews with interesting figures in microblogging for the same week, after speaking to Posty creator Cesare as well.

I’m looking to interview quite a few more people in the coming days and weeks, so feel free to volunteer and beat the rush….
