It's tough to overstate the amount of savings you should put aside. I'd say that even if you save for "18" months - there is a lot that can happen that you wouldn't even think to put on your expense plan, both in your personal and business

Thanks for that resource, I had no idea it existed.

The strange thing is that this recruiter has already placed other people at this company (according to the hiring manager). Maybe the terms did change, or the quality of those candidates turned out to be sub-par. I have started working with

Thanks for this advice. I was thinking about ways to close the loop and get out of this situation without harming future opportunities. This would be a good way to make sure my name stays clear with the hiring manager.

We recently released http://rewordio.us which helps people find alternative domain names by using a thesaurus. We went with this name because it's a bit shorter, but also registered the dot com to make sure wayward souls got back to the U

You should definitely reserve that name! Maybe through our site? :) I agree with not overwhelming the user. Though I think it depends on how your users are individually inspired to find the right domain name. Looking at competitor sites, so

Looks similar to the project I announced last week ( http://rewordio.us ) here: http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=2118240 I like the interface to show additional (whois, etc) information. Have you had folks purchase any domain names thr

Absolutely agree. I was looking for feedback and encouragement/doubts from people who have done this before, so I left it out intentionally so I could do a follow up post focusing on the idea itself. Several users in this thread have guesse

Thanks for the contrarian view. For me personally, the feedback I have gotten from reading people's YC rejection posts has been useful in that it has helped put the process into perspective. Judging by the upvotes on these kinds of posts, i

We haven't given up on it just yet. What came out of the whole process was that we are up against big hurdles - including legal obstacles that might make the business model impossible in the US. What we took to heart was that we needed to r

Thanks! Yes, that is really similar to what we had planned to do.

Thanks for the detailed advice Jordan. It's good to know that we're not completely crazy in doing this (just partially). I'm also glad to see that even if the first time didn't work out, you learned an incredible amount and are going to giv

I'm working on a post for that. Our friends and family are mostly in the North East, so we needed to think long and hard about the pros and cons of either scene. BTW, looks like you are in San Diego. Why did you choose that area (besides th
