TechStars Debuts Nine Startups In Boston
- falsestprophet 17y agoOn the surface TempMine seems like it has potential, but I can't imagine why a temp agency would donate its industry contacts and its "best" temp contacts to TempMine and pay 1% for the privilege. I don't think they're fooling anyone about their plans to compete as a what is effectively just another temp agency. Why not be straight about it and start connecting temps with companies straightaway? This plan also has the virtue of being plausibly profitable. edit Apparently, this is what manpower.com does.
- callmeed 17y agoI'm working on a project similar to HaveMyShift. Interesting.
- sachinag 17y agoTheir pickup in Chicago-area Starbucks is insane. I've known about it for a while, and on the rare occasions I deign to go into a Starbucks, I ask the staff there about HMS. Every single Starbucks has been a hit. It's crazy. If I were ADP or Paychex, I'd offer whatever it took to buy them out now, before it becomes huge.

- dbul 17y agoMe, too! What a coincidence.
- minalecs 17y agoI wish all these startups the best of luck.. I personally don't find anything too thrilling from this group, but the golf application looks very cool.
- kg 17y agoAs someone working from Portland, Maine (for a company back in SF), it's cool to see start ups out here. Best of luck to the folks at AccelGolf in Portland!
