TPUTX?

They imitate ТРУД in cyrillic, meaning "labor". It looks like a newspaper of the ruling communist party in some Eastern European country. Who is the fourth guy after Eric/Bill/Steve?

The official newspaper of the Communist rule of Soviet was called Pravda. Pravda is russian for "Truth". I think this is what they are joking with.

Congratulations on finding a five letter .com domain name that was available.

I'm pretty sure I've seen plenty of 5 letter .com domain names available using nxdom.com (started by someone here at HN). Especially ones that aren't easily pronounceable such as TPUTH.

I'd check to verify, but nxdom is blocked by my employer now because of the GAE hosting, I think.

quick impression: it's taking most popular stories from (social news sites like this?) and then creating a frontpage of them with... editing? I trust the crowd but want to edit them...

Those "headlines with attitude" are going to get old really fast.
