Why did it take you 11 years? This doesn’t sound like a startup, more like a monetized hobby.

- matte_black 9y agoWow, I would say though even if you had moved to the US you could have revised history a bit after you became successful and still been local heroes in Australia. Startups do this kind of creative story-retelling all the time.
- danieltillett 9y agoThe nice thing about bootstrapping is you don't have to get involved in these creative story-retellings. I was a fool and I am fine admitting it (in my own defence I was a scientist who really didn't know much about business). I should really write a follow up on this post as things have improved quite a lot here in Australia in regards funding. It is still difficult, but there is a startup ecosystem developing here.
