Valleywag
We asked which man most deserves Pownce founder Leah Culver's attentions: Googler Andy Smith or Flickr's Cal Henderson? In a late rally, Smith advocates won out. His 48.4 percent of the vote displaced the early leader, none-of-the-above option "cupcakes to face for both," at 43.5 percent. Now a pair of tipsters confirm Culver has, in fact, selected a new man. Has she heeded the wisdom of the crowd?
You kidding? Culver knows better than to trust you people. The Pownce founder's new man is Flickr's Cal Henderson, according a tipster who implores us: "Trust me. You don't get a better source outside of Leah or Cal themselves." Another tipster gives us this eyewitness account from the Future of Web Apps conference in Miami: 
I expected that Leah Culver story three weeks ago, since she was all over Cal Henderson at the FOWA beach party. In fact, it was so obvious I expected it to be headlining Valleywag the next day, not the Kevin Rose/Julia Allison stuff (which was barely anything).I don't know if any of you were actually at that party, but she was stumbling around following Cal like a little lost puppy, landing occasional kisses and tugging on his shirt to go out to the beach where they did who knows what. It was almost comically blatant.

That poll should have had a choice for "Logan Echolls".
Leah's cute in an 80's sitcom way. You'd think she could find a decent hairstylist around the Valley.
Maybe Brad F can give Cal some preventative data recovery tips
Leah Culver is my cupcake.
She's cute, I just wish she'd put a fork in Pownce and start something new. She has got to realize its time to cut her loses on Pownce and use her current micro-regional-celebrity momentum to start something new.
i wish you guys would get the scoop on ijustine's love life.
I wish they'd get the scoop on MY love life. It would motivate me to get one...
she converted floats to strings to round them with split().
why do you expect her to bestow us with the Next Big Thing?
He's chubby and he seems to be kind of an asshole.
I love him.
She is the tokyo rose of the 250. This, coming directly from Mr. 251.
When we act, we create our own reality. And while you're studying that reality - judiciously, as you will - we'll act again, creating other new realities, which you can study too, and that's how things will sort out. We're history's actors . . . and you, all of you, will be left to just study what we do.
@Ted Dziuba:
what does that _even_ mean?
@Alaska Miller: Tokyo Rose - [en.wikipedia.org]
@matto: I like to think she's a creative problem solver.
@Zoo:
i know who tokyo rose was but i'm lost in the context. is she suppose to be fake?
This poor girl needs to work on her choice of men. She's cute enough to do a lot better. Maybe it's her micro-celebrity status in the soon-to-be-doomed web 2.0 crowd?
Damn, was Leah Culver hotswapping again?
@Dweezil: <3
@dalejo tell me about it ...
maybe she'd rather be the big fish in a small pond than compete with the rest of the girls out there -- outside of of the "blogosphere"
Pssh. Who wouldn't be all over Cal after FOWA? He was by far the best speaker there, except for the guy who gave us all wine, which is clearly cheating.
I mean, gosh, Cal works a kitten-sharing website. Meow.
damn that broad is pretty cute.
lets face its, she pretty enough to get laser etched onto a macbook
Please research Irina Slutsky's love life!!
Hmmmmm
