Panorama's (YC S13) advice for first time founders and YC applicants
- esharef 13y agoGreat article! I especially like the comment below which is very true in our experience (W '13): YC: What’s been the most surprising thing about YC? "How much everyone really cared about us. You have a lot of mentors and friends and supporters who are all helpful, but the YC partners had this astronomical degree of kindness toward us."

- ateevchopra 13y agoThis is really great piece of advice. Especially for first time founders. Even I am a first time founder and can understand how important all the emotional and other help is useful. Few days earlier we were on the HN's first page. and received really great feedback. All the community's love was really a moral booster for us. The community believed in us even before we did. The love we receive in the beginning is always indebted.
