Nothing aggressive. I make sure people I employ gets paid well. I give tips generously. I have taught young kids in slums and I donate my clothes and other used stuff quite generously. I don't give to beggars because it's like supporting an

Can you point me to atleast one "active" group out there ? http://groups.google.com/group/east-bay-hacker-news , check out the post frequency, member size etc. The use cases you mention are very few and can be easily addressed with HN tags

www.appcanvas.com. I posted it here a few days back and was blasted for poor and unintuitive usability. Have been working my ass off on the UX since then. For what's it worth it definitely fits the description here.

You just sound like me. I had the best job. I am not in the valley. My first year in the woods saw me splitting with my co-founder, going into debt and not to mention that my first idea never took off. My current idea has seen 3 YC rejects,

I am curious. Did you outsource the UI/US as well to the Indian Development firms ?

Sorry. I just added a popup which will warn you on the homepage itself. The Design interface is very JS intensive and right now I have only tested it properly on FF. I do play to add support for all browsers very soon. However, the finished
