Show HN: Failory – Learn from other entrepreneurs' mistakes
- 5_minutes 9y agoNice concept, bookmarked. will check regularly. Perhaps useful to add is some categorisation and taxonomy. Good luck!
- richclominson 9y agoThanks for your feedback! We are working on those functionalities.
- onuralp 9y agoNot sure if the personal interview model can be scaled as to include an appealing variety of startups. You may want to take a look at these two sites[0:2] that I think do a pretty good job at aggregating the stories of the startups that did not quiet take off. [0] Collapsed - https://collapsed.co/ https://collapsed.co/ [1] Autopsy - http://autopsy.io/ http://autopsy.io/
- richclominson 9y agoThanks for the resources! I will check them out. Also thanks for your feedback, we will think how to scale Failory to more startups. If you know of any failed startup please share them our contact.
- dharness 9y agoInspired by https://www.indiehackers.com/businesses https://www.indiehackers.com/businesses ?
- richclominson 9y agoYes, I love IH!
- mattbgates 9y agoI thought it was from the creator of Indie Hackers! Maybe he was doing something new! But still a good resource.. bookmarked for lessons!
- richclominson 9y agoWould be awesome to partnership with Courtland!

- bitcoindev 9y agoLOL, Why people on HN tend to abuse their power like downvoting unecessarily
- kristoff_it 9y agoIs the name a wordplay on Fillory?
- richclominson 9y agoHaha no, the name of Failory becomes from failure + story. The logo makes reference to a chat + story + colors of failures.
- kristoff_it 9y agoMakes perfect sense, although it would still have been a good fit if it actually were a wordplay on Fillory.
- richclominson 9y agoIts true! :)
- krapp 9y agoI guess it's too late to suggest Failboat?
- richclominson 9y agoIt is actually a good name! Maybe for the podcast...(?)
- dmitrybrant 9y agoThe plural possessive of entrepreneur is entrepreneurs' (apostrophe after the s).
- kapauldo 9y agoIf this was a podcast I would listen every single week.
- richclominson 9y agoWe are planning to create a podcast! Suscribe to the newsletter to keep updated
- dodorex 9y agoWhat's with the emojis in questions? Distracting to read.
- richclominson 9y agoWe thought it would make the website a little bit more colorful
- lgas 9y agoDid you find them lacking in color before? FWWI, they give me a childish impression and made me want to insta-close the tab.
- dvt 9y agoYou should use one emoji per question and use it as a bullet point. Right now, it looks a bit jarring. Your intuition is correct (a bit of color/playfulness doesn't hurt).
- unkown-unknowns 9y agoWhen you say as bullet point, do you mean as in before the text? That's not how to use emoji in general. But a single emoji at any place within the text (as opposed to many of them) is a good idea.
- dvt 9y agoYeah I mean as bullet point. For example, see my blog: dvt.name. I use emojis as "bullet points" on an unordered list of blog posts. I'm not exactly sure what you mean by "how to use emojis in general" -- emojis are just like any other character used in any way that seems to make sense.
- richclominson 9y agoOkey, we will take this into account for the following updates. Thanks you!
- herpiko 9y agoThere is also http://startupgraveyard.io/ http://startupgraveyard.io/
- richclominson 9y agoYes, it was a great source of inspiration!
- dang 9y agoSockpuppet accounts and bogus upvotes will get your accounts and sites banned here, so please don't do that.
