Could you elaborate on the "funding out of nowhere" story? Sounds like an interesting anecdote at first sight :-)

- vyrotek 16y agoWell, my co-founder and I have always wanted to apply to YC but we couldn't figure out how to make it work. We're both married with young children. So, we just worked on it at night for a while and figured we would just try to bootstrap it. We frequently participated in a monthly startup conference in Utah called http://www.LaunchUp.org http://www.LaunchUp.org (site seems down right now) and eventually we were asked to present. The night we presented, someone announced that they were starting a program similar to YC for Utah called http://www.BoomStartup.com http://www.BoomStartup.com. We applied and were accepted and we're still in the program right now! You can check out our About Us for a bit more information - http://www.IActionable.com/about http://www.IActionable.com/about
