- sawyer 15y agoThe question is; why can't/aren't they? What are they using the money for?
- bradendouglass 15y agoMVP out the door and in the hands of us early adopty-type folks and then work to make a much "better" (whatever this means in your mind) product? It's what I would do.
- cbetta 15y agoTo be fair this is what Color thinks their MVP is....
- zbanks 15y agoIf you really think you can: pitch. Don't just complain that other people are getting the money.
- jhugg 15y agoMaybe the point was that there are a lot cooler ways to piss away 41m than taking 5 photos at WWDC. Perhaps few of them would sound interesting to a VC though.
- mikl 15y agoI'd much rather bootstrap than take VC money – but that’s beside the point. If Color ends up burning through $41M doing another failed social service (which seems likely), no one wins, and stories like these cast doubt on the whole startup economy.
