Hello from Philadelphia! I live and work quite near you, in center city. My economics and motives are likely rather different from yours, and/or from what you are used to seeing in most other people. Let me know the next time you feel like throwing away a project which might, in the right hands, still be viable. One man's trash is another man's treasure.
NOTE TO SELF: New startup idea: Create a Craigslist for no-longer-wanted, about-to-be-defunct startups. Woot!
- orenmazor 15y agoflippa.com is basically that, sort of.
- ThaddeusQuay2 15y agoThanks! At first glance, it seems useful. NOTE TO SELF: Come up with another startup idea! :(
- orenmazor 15y agothats the idea right there! a startup idea generator! http://itsthisforthat.com http://itsthisforthat.com oh shit :/
- ThaddeusQuay2 15y agoHa! To go further, we need an AI website which combines ITFT with analysis of Flippa's "Just Sold" section, thereby generating ideas for startups which are likely to sell.
- slig 15y agoFlippa signal to noise is pretty low. Maybe something more "curated" and targeted directly to HN would be better.
- dangrossman 15y agoI don't think that's a real problem; you don't page through all 1800 listings to look for something to buy. You add a couple filters and get exactly what you want. Heck, if you wanted to find Newsberry, just click "High End" in the main menu and sort by price -- it would have been right there on page one. Any custom set of filters/searches can be saved and turned into a daily e-mail alert, too.
