It sounds like there might be a waiting period before voting is counted. It could be karma or time based, but honestly either it way it is probably a good idea to slow down the spammers. Try commenting and participating for a couple weeks a

It's not the problem of spending $2, it's the question of if that $2 is going to the right people.

I always try to read up on the authors background to frame what they are saying. I do think it is useful to hear from people as they are going through the process, meaning I don't require that they have "made it" to trust their advice. I th

Great design, clever idea. I would signup for this: http://www.fandango.com/affiliateprogram and add a nice big button for "buy a ticket to see this movie". Seems like that would deliver better than adsense.

The important question is if they will be paying a salary and what kind of salary will it be? (will you be taking a lower rate then you make now, etc). If you are being paid a good salary it would be harder to justify a larger piece of the

It would be awesome if they released the data in some form, the interesting questions would be.. how successful are bootstrapped vs. funded? How successful are multi-founder vs. single-founder. How do these number change when you look at fo

Interesting idea, here is my feedback: 1) Whois information is basically worthless to me so I wouldn't lead with it. Lead with the SEO information as that seems the most interesting. 2) Emphasis the benefits of having the data, not just wha

I tried cold calling when I was 17 and starting a web design business, I swore never to do it again. I think there are probably much better ways to find your potential customers. Find our where they go (in real life or online) and go be a s

If you just want to make a decent wage, pay your bills, and not get rich then you aren't going to be very attractive to investors. Investors want to make money and lots of it. You might be able to find some Angels who might be interested, b

Looks interesting but I am too paranoid to give apps access to twitter now unless they tell me up-front what they are going to do. (make me follow them? update my status? etc)

I would at least give them a couple months, it takes most companies that long (or longer) to update their site. I don't think it would be burning bridges if you email them in a couple months if it's still up. You could always say someone co

My first hesitation was... will this work? I would explain what service it is using, or something to inspire some more confidence. Nice idea though and good name.

First I would decide if you really need to form one in Delaware (unless you are based in Delaware of course). You can fill out the LLC paperwork in most states in 30 minutes and then you are just out the filing fee. If you have partners tho

Ditch the adsense and look for referral programs for ticket providers, I am sure some of them have them. That seems like a much better revenue model than hoping people click on that stack of ads.

There is really no excuse for not having a portfolio. Go design some wordpress themes, or even better go re-design a site and just post what you did. For instance re-design HN and post it somewhere for people to see. Working with a designer

I thought that was weird as well, who want's to run two competing projects? Quicken Online and Mint are basically direct competitors. Which one do you spend your time on? When you have a new feature do you put it in both?
