The most impressive thing I find about the creator of yumhacker is that she just does what she wants to, even if she doesn't know "how" to do it she eventually figures it out. From her 180 websites to 180 days challenge, to this.
That kind of "Just F*$king Do It" attitude is so rare to find.
- jenniferDewalt 13y agoThank you! Getting over the fear of failure has been a huge lesson for me in the past year.
- rajbala 13y agoWhat are your thoughts on how to attract users to your projects?
- jenniferDewalt 13y agoThat's the next thing I get to explore and I'll definitely be asking for plenty of advice. One thing I plan to do is go out and talk to people who love exploring new restaurants. Bloggers, critics, chefs and just people who generally love food. I'm also thinking about different features that could help provide value while the site is still small, such as custom lists. But mostly, I expect it will be a lot of trial and error.

- jenniferDewalt 13y agoAwesome! Thanks for the tip!
- papasmrf 13y agoCheck out meetup.com, which tends to have groups that like to get together in different towns for different culinary experiences. You know the users are ripe for using the web to discover new dining experiences. You are right about review sites like Yelp, I really have never found a very useful restaurant review site, every restaurant seems to have great reviews and every one has bad reviews.
- lowglow 13y agoIt's the one trait that I've found separates entrepreneurs from everyone else. People are naturally risk averse and prone to analysis paralysis, etc. Just practice doing shtuff. Don't let people stop you.
