i, for one, would love a version for startup related questions, from logistical, strategic and financial to technical implementation suggestions. something like a more powerful Ask HN. users can respond to questions based on their opinions or (hopefully) experiences, others can vote on the relevance and usefulness of the response

your wish is granted:

So, that brings up another good point. StackOverflow, like answers.OnStartups was leveraged from an already burgeoning community, and quickly got other communities involved. With something grassroots, are you stuck in a chicken and egg problem?

I feel like if there are questions, there can be answers (some of us are better at google than others.. or less lazy or whatever) but if there aren't questions, it's dead.

yes i am so very excited about it. they seem to not have embraced the same philosophies i have been exposed to around this community. i'm going to try to share what i have learned there though i dont have much experience applying it
