I quit my job to work on NewsCred in July 08 (8 months ago). Hope to be Ramen profitable with 6 people in the next six months (we have a B2B side that is not apparent from our consumer website). Will definately post with details when that happens. It's tough, but no question one of the best decisions of my life.
We're pretty distributed. 2 people in Geneva (Switzerland), 1 in NYC, and 4 in Dhaka, Bangladesh. My cofounder just moved their from Sweden to start up our office there and take advantage of cost efficiencies.
Wow! I am really interesting in learning more about your international startup experience.. especially in setting up an office in Bangladesh to take advantage of cost efficiencies. Perhaps that'd make for a good story to submit to HN =)
