I'm watching 'The pursuit of happyness'when I need inspiration. Really love it. 'The internship'is another one that can inspire me. But most of all I'm inspired when I get some success with my project

Unfortunately $9M from my dream can't help me:) but yes, in real life it might be a great opportunity to start next startup.

It's not a problem for such big guys as Google or Facebook to create clons of lots of startups. But they usually buy them. Probably because they find them promising or competitory. I guess they are intending to monopolize the market

My main competitors are Facebook events and MeetUp. But as I said Google has bought my startup in a dream:)

Once I had a dream. In that dream Google purchased my startup for $9 mln. I remember my hard feelings - it was not enough. In my dream I assessed my startup for $19 mln. I try not to think about this. I'm just curious to know what is the approximate price of my startup and who might be interested in purchasing it. What are your assessments of your startups and why?

Re:Not sure what to do with my startup idea on Monday September 22, 2014 @07:27PM (#8353264)

I understand you pretty well because I'm in the same situation now. So what I've done? I've created something like a prototype using Prottapp (design was made by my wife in Adobe Illustrator). Another tool for this is Balsamiq. After this I'm going to create a crowdfunding campaign for further developing as I don't have enough money for it. May be you can try to do the same

Just enjoy your life! As for me travelling is the best

Re:Ask HN: What software helps you run your startup? on Sunday September 21, 2014 @04:32PM (#8348182)

Chrome

Google drive (a lot of stuff was done in it)

Google keep (really, I've deleted evernote as I like simple in use tools)

Pocket (not to forget a lot of helpful links)

Gmail

Buzzsumo (great tool but I've learned about lately. All stuff was done before)

Webflow (to create landing page)

Adobe Illustrator (to make all design)

It seems that my list is too short. But I think that you have to concentrate on your startup idea and not the searching of 'right' tools. If you really need them you can read here: http://www.quora.com/Startup-Founders-and-Entrepreneurs/What...
