Ask HN: Who is looking for a Co-Founder? ( Dec'11 )
After having been to about 20 hacker meetups and other such events, I just wonder what the best online founder dating sites are.

- mapster 15y agoJust curious to hear what you think you received from attending ~20 hacker meetups? Such as 20 solid contacts? Possibly these people could get the word out for you or refer you.
- jdavid 15y agomost of the meet-ups either have people that are not coders and are looking for a technical co-founder, or are developers very interested in their own projects. it's nearly impossible to find someone with the right skills, and the right interests. this is one of the shitiest parts of 'absolutely' needing a co-founder. i wish there was a y-combinator just for single founders.
- mnielsen 15y agoheh I have to agree with you wholeheartedly, which is why I haven’t actually gone to one of the meet-ups. Every time a new one is held I look over the attendees list and notice the same pattern: People looking for co-founders for their startup but never anyone actually looking to be a co-founder. I am actually doing fine without a co-founder, but obviously will need one if I ever want to join an incubator or accelerator as they don’t take single founders (unless you created Google/Facebook or Twitter prior to applying). If you ever find a place where people come because they WANT to be a co-founder please share!
