Following a flurry of venture capital interest around Metaweb’s announcement of a $42.5 million Series B led by Goldman Sachs earlier this month, it was great to see Troy Lane Williams’ PeoplePad attract VentureBeat’s attention this week.

I have to note, of course, that we got there first…

Well done, Troy.
