I think it's pretty easy to take shots from the sidelines. It's fairly obvious that the vast majority of you guys know very little about the start-up environment in Vancouver. We need guys like Danny and Bootup to take some risks in order to develop our ecosystem.

In this case, an error resulted. They didn't want that to happen, but it happened. Crucifying these guys after the fact helps no one.

If there's value in Status.ly, either someone else will step in and fund it or someone will buy it.

Entrepreneurial risk takes many forms.

As for the "slick PR messaging", you guys obviously don't know Danny.
