Thanks a lot!
Digg.com/celebrity worthy.
The question is ,are you behind money or are you driven by passion? If you are behind cash, get a job. Else, go for your startup dream, and stop worrying about MBA.
Now that you asked this question,my suggestion is , get a job, do an MBA.If your life's script has startup chapter in it, you will do it on the way!
Now its a billion times better. Although you need to refine things a little bit more, now the site is usable. Well done!

Yah! a cluttered homepage is a traffic repeller.I havent seen Yahoo home page for a long time. Except for an old yahoo school group ,and now Ycombinator news, i dont really use any other Yahoo service. [In reality Yahoo is sheep disguised as Wolf.AOL is wolf disguised as Wolf]
Not really. Basically Flex is swf itself. ie., flash content. Currently Flash content is playable on devices that come with Flash Lite player from Adobe. As of now,in Flash Lite,data can be temporarily stored on devices using shared objects.
Yes , it can be used to build applications with those capabilities. But depends on how you implement it ..just like Java. When implemented in browser, most of the sandbox restrictions apply.[Like java applets]. But when implemented in a desktop environment [using an OS dependent wrapper or on top of runtime like Apollo], it can write files to disk and do otherwise taboo karmas.
For updates on whats going on in actionscript community[or Adobe technologies in general], subscribe to Adobe's MXNA . Some of the finest Actionscript coders can be found at flashcoders pipermail list. [chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/private/flashcoders/]

There is a blog entry on their site which compares Apollo with Dekoh. Its totally misleading and is a lie.

Imagine your reaction when your employee does that to you when you start your startup!
Hey! This is cool! But Crap Box is better.
Dont feel bad, but the fact that novlet.com got rejected looks like a right decision. The home page has only a small block of usable information [Top stories section ]. Everything else is just space fillers.
Last registered users, Top usrs.. are all sections that should become prominent once the community gets strong.To let the section take a major portion of page doesnt make sense at this point of time .
Yes its an alpha, but when you do alpha,you should be DOING alpha.
Not that you guys have done a bad job, but the site gives an impression that it was cooked up without developers themself having no genuine interest in the site.
Please dont get discouraged even a little bit..Keep working with an open , positive mind. Best of everything to you . :)
