Ask HN: How do I build a mockup web app?
How are services like myBalsamiq (web version of Balsamiq) built ? Is there a set of tools for this kind of drag and drop prototyping and wire-framing? Or it just rely heavily on javascript.

Mine is 12 ideas now. I'm currently building one (A facebook app) now. In the past 4 months, I've been able to complete only one.

Great news that just made my day! But I dont really understand the details of this: Are they asking people to found start a business and give the total control (in term of decision making) of it to someone else ?
The whole point of starting a business (to me at least) is to have the ability to build your idea, make it grow and share your vision to the world.
Am i missing something ??
Anyway, this is still a very important step for us, foreigners.

basically, being the first is not always an advantage. If a startup implements your idea before you do, then make it better, make it easier to use.
And the good thing in being second is that you already know if people like the idea or not.

A friend of mine is a very active entrepreneur in our country (Cameroon) and his company (http://www.feeperfect.com/) already launched two really great products.
You should contact him, I'm sure he will be glad to work with you.

I'm in the same kind of situation. I live and work here in the US, but under a h1-b visa. Therefore, I'm not allowed to start a business here (And God knows I exactly want to do that).
From what I've learned, the best way is to apply for an E-2 visa, which allows you to enter the country in order to develop a business (And only that). One of the condition is the provide proof that you're ready to invest a substantial amount of capital in the company (A friend and lawyer told me it is usually more than 70k). That capital should strictly be for the company, your living expenses or others expenses are not included.
The visa is renewable every year and with no limit of to how many time you can renew.
