Readying YCombinator Summer 09 Application
I've grossly failed more times than I've succeeded; most anyone has, but I only need One time to succeed for it to matter. While I'm confident about myself and my ability, YCombinator is a long shot like anything else. I have nothing to lose and everything to gain from the experience. I've only heard good things about going through the program. So i'm submitting two ideas, possibly three for review. I've written and rewritten my application a few times heeding the advice others have written about on Hacker news. However against the odds and my time, I'm applying as a solo founder. That's still up for debate, but as luck would have it; I'm resoundingly more available than my co conspirators.
My areas of submission are : Classifieds, Events and Outreach (philanthropy)
Applications are due March 18th. Either way, this isn't the end all be all. I'm still an entrepreneur and I still plan on founding a company. I believe in 'the Valley' and what I'm doing, because the founding spirit is what made this Country great. We'll see, but I'll post back later with a update of Yeah or Ney.
If anyone has any advice, by all means post it here. I'm still on the hunt for advisors and early seed stage angels too.
