bizodo
bizodo, now SeamlessDocs, is the modern replacement to the PDF. It is a next generation form and eSignature platform that converts any form or doc into a cloud doc that can be completed and eSigned from any device.
The site needs a mobile friendly UI for newsletter sign up.
We built from SignUpasaService.com from scratch, launched, won AngelHack New York, got featured in TechCrunch, got hundreds of beta users, got inquiries from investors all in 48 hours!

SignUpasaService was built by the bizodo team so it was not outsourced. It will be a free service so hopefully you will give it a try.
Still think B2E is way bigger market but B2D is definitely a nice niche market with lots of room and more importantly helping developers build faster and better.
We recently launched www.SignUpasaService.com to help Developers build their registration, sign up and even payment pages in less than 2 minutes. One TC article later we already have hundreds of beta users!
Doesn't look good on mobile?
Flash player?
Is there a moo tools equivalent of this?!
Wow. Great article. Love the love for bizodo and the alley NYC. Changing the world.
How long until ur phone becomes a chromebox esque device that u can just plug into any screen or better yet wirelessly connect to any screen.
I used to suggest landing page but now it seems "don't make me think" can become "don't make me link!" Internet users want everything on one page and having a long squeeze page is the only option rather than putting together a cluttered landing page.
Do you mind if I ask how many users you has when acquired? How did you first come across sales force radar?
I think it's bc they found out about how airbnb used robots, scrapers and fake gmail accounts to scrub Craigslist and spam people listing their apt.
No need to brag. Haha. We do something similar at bizodo where we work a little later on Thursday and then half day on Friday.
Not exactly fair considering eBay just has an awful website and UX. look at airbnb which is designed well and you will find web and app experience to b similar. Apps might not kill the website but they sure as hell will influence design.
Box has had this for a while and I have also been using ge.tt to do this. Nice to do it from desktop tho.
I think airbnb needs to either raise the money to buy them or merge. If Craigslist worked like airbnb the world would b a better place.
The question is what should you care about?! The hardest part about building a software, especially a start up, is not what to put into software, but what to leave out. Pick your best thing and then stick w it (care the most about it). This may force you to neglect other aspects but make sure the things you care about are focused on and then outsource the other things you can (or put them on back burner).
Forgot www.domaintyper.com. The best way to look up a domain and also gives suggestions for shorter versions as well as random domain generator.
Great to c alternative energy making headway. Looking forward to replacing gasoline and removing oil as global power force.
Very cool. Shows a new trend in social funding. And inadvertently provides proof of concept. Would like to see something like this for music industry.
Now some of the aggregators need to send traffic to them also I.e. leandomainsearch.com and domaintyper.com which I love promote godaddy.
I would also apply to a start up hosting program. Many hosting companies offer big discounts or even free hosting in exchange for a "powered by" on the bottom of site. Not going to solve your problem but at least reduce monthly cost.
Question is whether people would rather get a rejection letter that actually showed who reviewed app, if even at all. From what I have read there are so many applications it isn't even possible for main guys to review and ones that do get reviewed are through referrals. I think it would provide solace that only an intern read your app so don't take it too personally. The dream of YC is great but don't forget that 25k and access to mentors is attainable through some creative emails and networking. Attend events and above all don't b afraid to ask.
