Sorry, post 3, but actually it IS a bit disappointing ;-) I wasn't so disappointed about the YC rejection because of my shoddy application (sorry for that, YC, btw). But this sf0 thing really seems to implement many of my ideas, especially the community implementing the tasks.

Nevertheless I think it would still be fun to work on something like this, perhaps with a different angle. Or what do you think, should I just admit defeat?



Competition proves (at least at some level) the validity of your idea. Do it in a different city. Join their team. Build something that complements what they do. Or just do it better.


"should I just admit defeat?"

Definitely. It worked out great for Larry and Sergey to shoot that search horse and move on to empty pastures where nobody else was grazing.

Of course...sf0 has been around for quite a long time. I'm not convinced there's a business model there.


Don't sweat these guys. Who can figure out what they're doing?
