I take Remicade for UC on a monthly cadence. From $500 to now $1300/m for 2 in TX, and an added bonus of a 10% lab coPay + All kinds of fees.

I am Blessed running a good startup but I've always felt this deeply.... "But I can't imagine what people have to sacrifice to keep any kind of coverage (with high deductible and horrible coinsurance and prescription drug coverage) for their families if they don't have a decent income :("

do you have an invite to lunchclub ?

Would like to get some fund raising advice as well. Email in about. thnx

It depends. If you have enough savings, you can take the much needed time-off and clear your mind and then work on another problem to solve. If money is the issue then get a consulting or freelancing gig (plenty of info on HN how to get 1). Write a guest blog post on why your Startup failed. Also there are plenty of people looking for Co-founders. The worst mistake is to not start something new because you think you may fail again.

Linode is the fastest if you are looking for speed and their plans are pretty cheap comparatively.

I guess he just enjoys the 'High' of being first in line for a new Apple product.

Already there, aren't you able to see it ?

They should have read this http://www.paulgraham.com/startupmistakes.html

specifically #8. Slowness in Launching

When I figured the actual link, I tried reposting it, some one had already posted it.

I wanted to delete my post, HN was timing out.

I have personally been using http://www.sandboxie.com/ to use facebook only.

Great App, just tried it on my HTC Evo.

1 thing I noticed is that if its a new post, there is text 'discuss' or 'x comments' following the submitter, which when clicked taked u to the actual site posted and not the comments.

*to get to comments, depress the post for 2 seconds

There is definitely a need for something like this in the recruiting market, as there are many fake profiles on linkedin (I ran a recruiting thing for a while). But most of the companies already run their own education & employment history checks, and at $40 its a tough sell to Job seekers, at the start, unless I really am guaranteed a job with the badge :). A suggestion would be, to make it free for Job Seekers, interviewing them and making sure they are who they say they are and etc, and then you can try talking with companies to use this as a service and charge a referral fee.

So is this like instagram meets ratings for anything ?

Agreed. I have seem some really talented developers, but they sucked at understanding business or etc. Again if you want to do a startup, you need to be a Jack of all trades, or find a co-founder who is strong where you are weak.

Having personal talked with Noah, it makes sense on what he did or is asking others to do. I myself have ran and am running sites which bring in revenue. not on the $1MM scale but still some $.

+ replicating what AppSumo does is not that hard, you need a decent site with some deals on the page. The Deals you get by emailing entrepreneurs or devs of any product out there. There are many struggling devs and companies which would love to cut you a deal as far as they are getting sales and customers.

OpenSource it or sell it on Flippa. I sold a previous failed startup code on Craigslist once, it had a website and all. Usually if its just code ppl are hesitant to buy it, put it up with a nice looking site and some pics of what it does and etc, and you should be able to find a buyer. A Friend of mine sold his online business he wasn't making any money in, on BizBen.

He used speakerdeck.com

It all just Depends, there is no 1 strict rule. How old is the Start-up and how much it has raised. All these and more vectors come in place.

In a Bootstrapped or recently Seed Funded startup, The Founders pretty much do everything. In Later stage startups, the management structure starts to take shape as more people are brought on-board.

This is a Big Win for Spotify and Ford ! Ford Sync and Spotify should be Awesome.

They do charge the $25 sign-up fee, which they can increase and follow the AppStore Model. + they are stil lgenerating revenue from Google search results and AdMob, which most of the Apps are using.

Where is the Template and the Guidelines ?

Nicely put, I think Distraction is the #1 issue because of which CEO's fail in their day to day activities. Try to focus on one thing at a time and accomplish it, rather than juggling multiple items and not completing any.

MS will also allow Malware to run on PC's with this!

Who do you sue or blame in this Situation ?

Maybe if you can add a login and also a way to track and get feedback on an idea. Maybe someone is already working on it and would love an extra hand.

It sucks when companies start to impose crapware on consumers and defend it as useful.
