I wonder how many startup founders regret being acquired early.

Not implying reddit was acquired early, just more of a general question. I'm talking more about the Flickr's of the startup world.

Heh-- I got acquired early (and left after my contractual obligation) and have a long list of bookmarked blog posts detailing frustrated founders who have been gobbled up. I certainly would ask some different questions and set some different expectations if I'm ever acquired again.
