Dude, you're obsessed with being a founder, more than you have vision/plan/reason/skill to actually be one. You have all of the lingo right, all of the right words, hell, your post here even knows how to speak to why you failed in a voice that will get the rest of this community to read it. Your company name even had an "r" at the end with a missing vowel!
Reading your article, like many others before me, I was annoyed at first but thought, you know, maybe this is just another young wantrepenuer who needed to learn for himself...
Then I saw this response. "I will address your comments in a blog post". Really? Look at the great posters/founders that come in here and respond to comments. They do so comment by comment, to the point where sometimes I wonder how they've got the time and then remember how much I cared when I was trying to do my own thing and know I'd have done the same. Do you really think we're all waiting with baited breath to see your next blog post? Think it'll get upvoted too? Not likely. Something cool with security/lisp/new tech x/can't believe someone just did y/PG's thoughts on life/3D 2048 MMORPG will drown it in seconds.
I'm not saying to quit, you're terrible, or anything like that. Just start being real, stop thinking about your presence, funding, seeding round 22, or whatever, and get to building something actually awesome, and you'll have the startup ecosystem banging your door down. The rest just makes you look hungry to be something you're not.
Wow, I think that's quite a low blow in response to what I found to be an honest and introspective post. And what's wrong with commenting in a new blog post? So what if it doesn't get upvoted, that just means that he won't get exposed to another round of this.
Yeah I agree. Everyone has different schedules and ways to do things. It's a better experience for me to read it as a well thought out response than individual comments sometimes.
