I work at TS and have a lot of friends that have been through YC. You can debate about this a lot but at the end of the day both can be fantastic for your team. There is a style to the Valley, Boulder, Boston and Seattle that will be better

We set up something to play around with http://vanillaforums.com/ . Not sure if we will open it up and run with it. Interesting discussion on the direction of hacker news, I see value in both.

Some interesting stats for you on the company you used: http://www.specwatch.info/raw-numbers3.html I can't scream from the rooftops loud enough to stay away from spec work. Some bad things happening from it on all sides.

I've used the zeo for a while. Love it, but in the end I move the headband off my head in my sleep (active sleeper) and would wake up with no data 1/3 of the time. That is frustrating. From what I read this is true for about 10% of users

I have been loving http://www.actionmethod.com by the Behance crew... It is what I wished basecamp was. Lightweight but can manage a ton of projects, has an iPhone app and even gasp paper.
