http://www.unrabble.com looks good. Liked the way you are allowing profile import from LinkedIn/Facebook. Wonder why you don't allow importing data from word resume.

I agree with checklist. This list is perfect for most startups but launch quick is not good enough. We need to launch and need to get good feedback so we can fix those issues. Sometime it is hard to get feedback. In that case we need someone who can market our product or who has good contacts to get the word out. Technical people like me has hard time to sell the product or idea. So for me (14) Hire or find co-founder with marketing skills.

Well that could be it. But still i think - if idea is adding more value to current industry then there is a scope. But I am not PG ( not yet ;) ) so, my thinking doesn't count ( counts for me - not for others ).

YC Rejected? Don't give up.

Learning from mistake.Our idea was to allow mobile data sync and we had prototype ready. We submitted our application during one of the YC round ( Last year ) and got rejected. We don't have other sources to get funding so, we stopped working on that idea. We stopped because our idea needed funding to go to next stage ( For testing multiple phones etc. )Recently ZYB got sold for @49M.Well! We...

Re:Twitter Said To Be Abandoning Ruby on Rails on Thursday May 01, 2008 @06:28PM (#179032)
I am Ruby learner. The way ruby works with DB is problem for novice. If programmer don't do careful coding for caching then it is bound to cause problem. Ruby hype is all around auto code generation and simple coding/scripting. But when you are writing enterprise level apps then there is more to consider.
