Interesting how YCs very first web-statement in 2005 remaines true and current. http://web.archive.org/web/20050324062234/http://ycombinator.com/ http://web.ar

  Wow, thanks for that link. That was before we even had a logo. I should go see if we have that file somewhere.

    My pleasure PG. Wayback is instructive for founders. If ever you doubt the value of what you're doing, and fight desires to hold fire and perfect more features, the wayback machine is a great reminder that those companies that succeeded started somewhere less than minimal too, and executed on from there.

  From the Legal page (http://web.archive.org/web/20050324100821/http://ycombinator.com/legal.html http://web.archive.org/web/20050324100821/http://ycombinator...) "Privacy Policy: We're too lazy to look at log files, and haven't yet written any software to do it. Terms of Use: When you click on a link, our server will send you the corresponding page." Love it. Unlike many other sites, this one hasn't changed in years. edit: privacy policy is gone (so I presume they got around to writing the software)
