When I see "I do not want to sell this company" in bold - that means to me - I really want to sell this company asap. Do we really need another site covering startups?

There are advisors and fund of funds just to hedge your bet on hedge funds - and like you said - it's only going to get harder. Picking a hedge fund is going to be like picking the next hot pharma company.

Really - how do they plan on making $? Who would buy them? I don't know anyone besides VCs and a few friends that used it while it was getting all the hype. Now I know nobody that uses it now that the fad is over.

VCs seem to like infographics: http://techcrunch.com/2011/07/13/visually-launches-to-automa... $2mm to an infographic company - how do they expect to make a return? I have no clue what goes through VCs heads sometimes - I guess they get c

So I can send emails all day long with an update to people to visit my site. Since they get money if you go to their site I would consider it commercial. Also - even if it isn't commercial - they should let you 1 click unsubscribe - pretty

Not sure what you mean - they raised $1mm and I was answering the person's question why MM means million.

For some online & finance things M = 1 thousand (like CPM, cost per 1,000 impressions). So MM means 1 thousand, 1 thousands = 1 million.

1) auth.net is always safe 2) you set it to whatever you want 3) easy - you decide - probably pro-rate 4) credits are easy 5) select sum(amount) from charges where date='this year'... the other thing is just accounting by dates, up to indiv

Just get a merchant account and program it yourself - it's super easy to do. I don't even understand a need for 3rd party recurring billing companies - programming something to charge someone $X amount every X days is pretty dang easy...
