If you want the HN of 3 years ago, http://allyourstartuparebelongto.us/ http://allyourstartuparebelongto.us/ is for you. I'm looking for a better domain name. Suggestions are welcome. I've been trying to get startup.co and techstartu.ps, but so far no luck. The submission/banning criteria is actionable startup advice for tech startup founders. Relevant tech is OK as long as it directly relates to or is obviously useful to startups. No news. And no politics, economics, science, etc. unless it meets the startup criteria. The site is running open source reddit, so there is ample opportunity to hack it as well. I've done a few minor things, and I plan to add email notifications as well. Feel free to fork reddit on github and play around.

tartups.com is available, so you can do what delicious did and have s.tartups.com

  I want to both punch you and give you a medal for that suggestion.

  Though without the s, tartups.com has some pretty bad connotations.

    And "Hacker News" doesn't?
    - saikat 16y ago
      Not to its target audience, no =).

  Taken! (not be me). For one second I was thinking of installing an hacker news like forum for startups.

These are all available: startuphacker.com hackerbusiness.com (or hackerbiz.com) businesshacker.net hackerventure.com foundernews.com foundermaker.com beafounder.com techstarting.com techmaker.com founderstart.com makerstart.com (As an aside, I'm always impressed at how quickly you respond to criticism, even minor nits like domain names)

  Thx. I'm still working on fully responding to the ddg thread from yesterday :)

    I'm not sure if I'm the only one that websites with black backgrounds bother...

      It's really easy on the eyes late at night and early in the morning.

        Not for people over a certain age.. I'm never getting those nights and mornings back. :) It's really just retina-searing, sorry. Other color options would be most welcome.

        I don't know if I'm just used to it, but I really like HN's background color.

      You're not the only one. I appreciate the appearance from an aesthetic standpoint but it only takes 30 seconds or so for the "burn-in" effect to happen, and I start seeing horizontal stripes everywhere. When stuck working on Windows my consoles get switched to black-on-white. Otherwise I'm a perfectly normal person who enjoys cilantro.

About the box at the top for new and upcoming links: If you click "what's this?" and then "close help" it doesn't actually close the help. It just removes the close help link. Saw that you're busy in one of the later comments, but I thought I would mention it.

  Thx--I've noticed that too.
