As you mentioned, you are far more happier sitting behind and building the product, maybe you could hire an intern for a few months who would be happy reaching out to people and try and get them to pay and if they don't, then understand why they are not doing so. Are you really solving a problem that exists? An intern with good people skills and empathy should be able to help. Though personally I was not sure what is the value add that a website for a small business would have over a facebook page.
Ask HN: When coding, what are examples of things that you want to remember later
When you are focused and coding, what are some things that crop up in your head which, at that instant, you feel "I want to remember this for later" I don't just mean in terms of todos for later, but also I remember this now, but I won't if I look at it 3 weeks from now. For example, it could be decision that you made while coding, where you took one approach instead of others. Why you took...

I had built the same thing and posted to HN a couple of years ago.

If someone mentions that they were responsible for overseeing this growth, in their resume should I be impressed? i.e. they built systems which scaled to meet this growth.

As geeks, we tend to forget sometimes how trivial questions such as "What browser are you using" leave some users completely stumped. Heck, there may be so many people who do not even know the meaning of a browser. This seems a simple yet great way to get the required info. Kudos!

Agreed that the majority of the time is in 2012 and that could very well be the reason why its named that way. Just that when I first read Winter 2012 I was under the impression that it is for next years batch.
Ask PG/HN :Why is the upcoming batch referred to as Winter 2012 funding?
See here http://ycombinator.com/apply.html Why not Winter 2011? Because the batch will start in December 2011 I would have thought it should be called winter 2011 funding? If I had applied to grad school this year, I would be joining in Fall 2011 and not Fall 2012, right? Is this a cultural thing with the US or is there any specific reason why its called Winter 2012? Have previous funding...
