Crowdtilt (YC W12) raises $2.1M

From the article:

>I’ve found that when I plan something like a vacation rental with friends, it’s often done by email with a lot of chasing for payments in the aftermath (that could just be my own flaky friends, of course).

It's definitely not just the author who has flaky friends. I think almost everyone has problems collecting money from friends. This makes me think of fantasy football and what a pain in it is to run a league. This, in turn, makes me think of WePay. I wonder how WePay is doing with these two specific use cases: vacationing friends and fantasy sports. And I wonder what they think of Crowdtilt.

Congrats James and Khaled! Awesome company from two of the nicest guys you will ever meet.

I thought Crowdtilt was like kickstarter but then I read further and its different. I like the idea and I can definitely see myself using their services.

If Facebook credits had a decent percentage fee instead of the crazy 30% they currently have, they'd instantly rule this market completely.

Congrats guys, Crowdtilt rocks! (said the guy wearing a shirt bought using crowdtilt).

Congrats! Keep crushing it guys.

Congratulations guys!

Congratulations.

Excellent work, gents.

You're welcome :)
