Re:Is anyone working on something that is not a website? by palish on Thursday May 10, 2007 @02:10PM (#21109)
Web is certainly where the money can be at. But everyone probably realizes that there are plenty of other things you can do and still create a startup. The advice in Paul Graham's essays and YCombinator's library holds just as true if you're not working on a webpage startup.

For example, I read about someone who created a startup selling knife sheaths on EBay. Even if he were to create a website advertising his knife sheaths, he still wouldn't really have a webpage startup.

So, is anyone working on a non-webpage startup, and if so, what're you doing? :)
