You posted a thread asking for help on your startup after being a member for 15 days.

Seems like an unfair rant. Flagged.

fair enough. Although I feel like you missed my point. Review my startup is great. And all for people building a startup for startups.

I'm just seeing a lot of startups whose focus is to market to startups. And I feel like many people might be spinning their wheels by building for a market that is oversaturated.

What the hell do I know? Keep building startups for startups and asking for a review on HN. I'm just concerned that those people who are building their startup for startups might be wasting their time. And I myself and finding myself irritated about seeing nearly the same exact startup idea within a week. So flag me, I deserve it.

lol, thanks man - it's alright. The title of the post was not quite on target. Startup for startups are alright if it is something compelling.

I wrote something on "review my startup" for another site where there was a a list of categories for tutorials, and under the javascript category were videos for JAVA. Between that and the 2 posts this morning for startups curating conent for startups I just found myself annoyed, like "really, is this what is has come to?". I did sign up for user diary, a start up for startups but it struck me as compelling.

Your apology has been upvoted.
