I've just understood that you submitted TopChart for the Fellowship. Great idea to post it here on HN ;)

Alright! This is just what I was looking for when I submitted my video to YCF2015: What other applications sounded like.

What's up with requiring a Facebook account for upvoting?

So that people don't easily game the system. Would you prefer Twitter or just not logging in at all?

It's interesting to see what kind of groups applied for this. I'm working on a product at the moment and was thinking of applying but without co-founders I didn't think it was a good idea. Also from the application form I get the feeling you would be "encouraged" to move to the Bay area if not during the 2 months at least after it, which I can't do.

I'd prefer twitter, and a tweet button. Twitter is less personal and reach is bigger than on facebook.
