I think that most people do, and most people should - it's the principle of social proof at work. Most of us value this community, so we look to those who came before us to an article to signal if it's worth a read or not. I think

Fix your bugs, etc etc but save all of these mentions to a Twitter list or favorite. Basically capture the interest so you can reach out to them when the app is closer to product market fit. This is a good problem to have and there's

I really like LendingClub. I was a bit mad at my default rate, as I followed stringent criteria, but I'm still sitting at 6.5%. I actually had someone die that I lended to and it really hit home with me for some reason. The return is

Question: Why are there so many new chat platforms coming out? Isn't this problem pretty well figured out by now?

Did they talk about how they would make money, or is it a non-profit that YC is funding?

I had this idea a while back and I'm glad that Nextdoor is dominating it. Growing up on a double cul-de-sac, I'd say I was fortunate enough to have a close neighborhood just by virtue of the shape of the street, but for people th

I have always been unsure why people prefer one over the other - it's essentially the exact same service. I typically go with whatever one is closer / is offering a deal at the time.

This is just one of the worst things I've ever read on Cutt's blog. Because they can't really distinguish good guest posting from 'passable' guest posting, it's all done? Got news for you: guest blogging is re
