   Thanks for the info. No, I am not very good at the meet and greet stuff :). Our team is made of 3 people, on in DC, one in CA and one in Minnesota :). I will probably be the only one who makes it there. I think if I can get a ticket for

   Excellent observation. I think the problem is that I am currently at the crossroads of being bootstrapped and also considering funding. We have a ton of things that need to be done and can't really do them while bootstrapped. For example

   I changed the words around to make it a little clearer. And btw, I have no affiliation with them.

   They mention on angelsoft that only 5% get funded. Take a look at these stats http://angelsoft.net/industry/index.seam

   Great suggestion. I tend to lose interest after a minute or so as well - damn ADD.

   Don't get me wrong, I love hacker news. I just wish there was a way to integrate this great discussion with my article. Wordpress hacker news plugin anyone?

    Wow... I thought I was posting something useful for other startups and entrepreneurs, but for some reason, I am getting crucified in here :) Whew!!! tough crowd.

    I like the fact that I can reach 1000s of investors instantly. I know this isn't a substitute for a real relationship and networking but the cost/benefit IMHO is pretty good. It's like posting your resume on monster.com. Sure, you will ha

    Thanks for the constructive criticism. Actually, I am not offended the slightest bit. I was just being sarcastic and funny but I guess I didn't do a good job.

    Great suggestions. I use RTM for personal TODO and basecamp for project management and collaborating with my team. Like StreaSend is OK, I just chose them because they are cheap. But they do the job.

    I am in the DC metro area (specifically Arlington). Yes, I am not networking enough - it takes too much time and is not as fun as coding. Seriously though, I just started this whole raising money thing a few days ago. So I am learning. Sp

    Do you guys even read or do you just skim the list? Personally, I just skim the list but if you read it, I say: "It has only been 3 days, so I don’t know how effective it is, but so far, I really like it."

    Done. I added a link to the HN comments in the post.

    Thanks. I really wish people would comment on the actual blog, so that others can benefit.

    Read the disclaimer on my article. Here it is again: Disclaimer: I am sure you noticed that most of the links have a referral code. Don’t worry, that didn’t affect my recommendations or integrity (what is that?). I actually use all the s

    I have never raised money before but I thought reaching so many investors for $250 is definitely worth it. It would cost me $250 to fly somewhere and meet ONE investor. But like I said in my post, I don't know how effective it is. I will

    Basecamp has a free version too. But unfuddle looks pretty good.

    That makes sense. That's why I like disqus.com because it lets you track comments across all blogs using it.

    Thanks for the advice. One thing I don't get is why people comment on hacker news and not at the actual blog post??? Sure it gives the link more points and push it to the top which will generate more traffic, but wouldn't it be more helpfu

    Thanks for the summary, but you will be missing all the humor - it takes a lot of energy, coffee and cigarettes to add humor. And no, I don't feel bad that I spent an hour writing it :). PS: No refund offered if article not found humorous
