Guess you changed your mind? 404..

  Still not quite sure why you got this. Couldn't replicate. I'll be checking error logs, etc to ensure whatever it was doesn't happen again. Only receive 3 404's for something like 2k visitors yesterday.

    Did you change the post title? I figured since your URLs contain the title then that's what must have happened. Works now though :)

      Sort of... I had the post open in two tabs, one tab with the original title, one with the title I posted here. A few seconds after posting I noticed a sentence I didn't like, tweaked it in the wrong window, hit save, saw the title change, switched it back. You must have hit in that few second time frame.

I wish I knew what "it" was...

  It's essentially a program that trains attorneys on how to run their businesses. My partner is really the face of it and the person that designed the curriculum, but I put together all the tech, members area, sales pages, etc.

Congrats - do tell us tomorrow what it actually is. But congrats!

Sweet, what are we shipping? Seriously though, you're on the front page of HN, seems like a good opportunity to promote your product.
- brettkw 14y ago
  Wow, first time I've ever submitted anything as well. I'm insanely happy but this wasn't an attempt at promoting it. I'm trying very hard to keep my blog and my business interests separate.

Really looking forward to seeing what it is you will be shipping tomorrow! I myself have been working on an idea for about a couple of months now, and I can relate to what your are going through! I just hope that I can ship my product pretty soon as well! Once you ship, you'll gain much more insight on your product through customer feedback, which I believe is the most valuable part of your product once you have shipped!

  My advice, set a hard deadline and announce to your clients and partners that could potentially send sales that you'll have it in their hands on that date. No excuses.
