  That's a pretty funny thread. Near the bottom you see this guy talking about his startup ideas and Drew Houston replies and asked him if he wants to help with Dropbox. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=35088 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=35088

    And of course -- Colin's tarsnap is still essentially the same as it ever was (a brilliant technical solution with awful marketing) - and Dropbox is one of the jewel's in YC's crown.
