jtarud··on Ask HN: How is the SVB situation affecting your startup?

We stand by SVB.

I invite others to do the same.

jtarud··on Posterous silently changes all external links to affiliate links
I agree here, Posterous is free and a dam great service. If you want full control code your own blog or go the wordpress custom install way. They need to monetize somehow.
