Contact their employees and hire them. Many will still believe in the vision and want another crack at it.

- cperciva 16y agoBe careful about this. It sounds like drop.io was dying before facebook bought it out, and the last thing you want to do is replicate their failure. I'm not saying that this is automatically a bad idea; just be careful.
- rosser 16y agoThat just means they've already made at least some of the possible mistakes in such a venture, and on someone else's dime.
- cperciva 16y agoSure. The trick is to make sure that you recognize what the mistakes were and don't repeat them. (And if someone says "no, I can't think of any mistakes we made", don't hire them.)
- jiaaro 16y agoThat's a pretty interesting idea. Right now I'm in the "My Weekend Project" stage (I havn't even finished setting up paypal) but maybe at the very least, I could get advice from them? What's a good way to ask? Do you think they'll be bound by NDAs etc?
