There seems to be some confusion among the HN user about the actual starup definition. Many people call a startup even outside projects and websites made for fun. PG says "The essential task in a startup is to create wealth", that pretty we

Nothing matters less to me than mee-too-ness about startup programs. I'm desperate for 100 absolutely same programs to be available to me in absolutely same time in absolutely same places. Be serious man, copying a application form cann't b

Great work, but ... looks like an example of completely missing the basics of the customer needs. Do we really need good design to start taking shots? Think about us already missing a year of pictures. Sorry for making it sound sharp.

Keep in mind that you don't have that much time. More than one RoR bastard will know about your website soon and frankly it takes only couple of weeks of fulltime developement to produce a service like yours.

Well, you won't talk to hundreds of applicants after the initial text-only review. And to talk to rest - in my opinion - could be much more valuable in the sense of not putting people into uncomfortable position, if only its not the exact g

I've had experience of beign rejected by both, and have got better feelings with TechStar :) Well, the ideas were different too, so it triggered different reactions. But overall, techstars do good job offering more opportunities for the sta

I wouldn't call 'Free trial' the 'original freemium model' Surely, its the original 'try-before-you-buy' model. So we're left with only two options: 1) Active free users - adding value by doing something, like creating content 2) Passive fr

"And almost without exception, organizations are run by people who want to protect the old business, not develop the new one." Even this alone is enough for a smart startup to succeed in the field of horrible and established competition

All spoken here do not understand .Net enough. I worked for tagworld.com and this web project is "quite" big. Viewstate and drag'n'drops and the like are nowhere used. .Net is NOT for web sites, it is for web projects, really big and heter
