Focus on longevity. Work a job. Save and invest. Keep costs low. Find and contact prospects personally. Provide support. Gauge feedback. Improve. Survive. If you need help, I run a platform at webmenu.org that may help you help people. Best regards.

“Overcoming poverty is not a task of charity, it is an act of justice. Like slavery and apartheid, poverty is not natural. It is man-made and it can be overcome and eradicated by the actions of human beings. Sometimes it falls on a generation to be great. YOU can be that great generation. Let your greatness blossom.”

Thank you Madiba. May your peace rest in all.

Rapacious systems can only last so long before collective trust dissipates.
It is concerning. I've been concussed by a baseball to the head as a teenager and these emerging long-term effects to the brain kind of freak me out. Probably shouldn't have took a few more headshots after that, but tis life I guess. Funny how our strongest asset is also the most fragile.

Yep! I enjoy them too! Never know what surprise you'll find around the corner. Should be a fun.
Re:Show HN: WebMenu, a platform to discover new web apps on Tuesday November 05, 2013 @07:05PM (#6679516)
Yea, I'm going to have to optimize the uploading process a bit. Thanks for the feedback. Your page looks very nice and will be featured soon!
Re:Show HN: WebMenu, a platform to discover new web apps on Tuesday November 05, 2013 @06:09PM (#6679165)
I think there's value in providing a quick, clean overview and recommendation of applications to potential buyers before they pursue further. WebMenu could potentially be sort of like a mall, where buyers walkthrough and get a glimpse of what apps are selling through their window screens, so to speak, before they enter the store.

You have an awesome service as well, and I would definitely enjoy possibly collaborating. Right now, I'm focused on featuring smaller Saas and consumer applications that need help presenting their service to new users in an easily understandable format. I really want this service to provide users with high quality information about applications through descriptions, screenshots, and reviews. I would love to talk a bit more privately. You may email me at contact(at)webmenu.org if you want to get in touch or get featured.
Re:Show HN: WebMenu, a platform to discover new web apps on Tuesday November 05, 2013 @04:09PM (#6678325)
Yep, I definitely need to optimize a few of my assets. Hard to tell on my non-retina display, but I hope to optimize eventually.
Re:Show HN: WebMenu, a platform to discover new web apps on Tuesday November 05, 2013 @04:07PM (#6678314)
Yep! They're awesome too! Would love to have them on the WebMenu. They're a great Saas directory for business. We feature business apps too, although we're open to a wider range of consumer apps as well.
Re:Show HN: WebMenu, a platform to discover new web apps on Tuesday November 05, 2013 @03:56PM (#6678227)
Thank you for the feedback. I definitely want to focus more on independent web applications and smaller startups or bootstraps, although users are allowed to upload and add popular web apps they are fans of as well. I'm going to try my best to evolve the service based on the community and see where it goes. I may have to provide personal reviews for each application to help users get more information to draw from.
Re:Show HN: WebMenu, a platform to discover new web apps on Tuesday November 05, 2013 @03:33PM (#6678032)
I hope so! I really want to help developers get the attention their apps deserve!
Re:Show HN: WebMenu, a platform to discover new web apps on Tuesday November 05, 2013 @02:51PM (#6677693)
Hello all, As a bootstrapper myself, I've noticed getting exposure for new web services is hard. The major media outlets usually don't care and focus on gossip more than products. I've built a simple platform to help connect web applications with the users looking for them. I hope I can help you find new users and get reviews. Any feedback to improve the service is appreciated.

Planets will be the new nations, teleportation will be the new transportation, and engineers will still be in demand.

Looks uncomfortable. A smartring may be better suited for usability down the line.
