"Review my startup" posts should be moved to http://www.pivoted.co

I still think people should post "Review my startup" on hacker news. I am just seeing the same exact idea over and over again. I will definitely check out pivoted.co

On: Pivoted - Social news only about new web projects

I have spend last 9 months of my life coding, not making social media friends. Hacker News and reddit didn't noticed my thing so I made pivoted for folks like myself.

There is no anymore place on interwebs where you can easily tell people about your startup. Especially if you are not social media well connected, outside incubator and Silicon Valley.

Hacker News become like Reddit which becomes like Digg which becomes like Mashable which follows TechCrunch which follows Slashdot which follows any other independent website that become massive. Peace.

Think early TechCrunch. No tech stories, only direct links to products and services are allowed.
