1. Extremely crowded space.

2. It will never scale with manual match making. Compare the costs of an algorithm versus a room full of real people who need salaries.

3. One small feature difference is not enough to differentiate you from competitors. Why would people switch to your service?

Not to come of harsh, but I think that's the reality.

Anyone who pays to pitch their startup doesn't deserve to be funded.

You have the be kidding me... their name is the Funding Feeding Frenzy. What a joke.

Completely agree about starting now... and I have. I'm on my second startup. No one should delay starting because of location alone.

Good point about working for other companies. Just curious, where did you relocate to, and are you still involved with startups?

I always get these very arbitrary responses, and I don't understand why. If SF is really a better environment for startups, then the difference in cost of living should be a small trade off. I don't mean to come off harsh, I'm just trying to wrap my mind around this occurrence.

Why did you leave then? I'm always curious as to why some people move away from SF if they want to run a startup.

I'm speaking in terms of founding and growing a startup.

No complaints for SES thus far :)

you can make your profile private where people must request to follow you. do you think more options are necessary?

It'll probably be a couple of months before Vloggo gets to Android. I'm looking for a co-founder and funding as my first priorities.

Thanks! I figured blue social networks are way over used. I'll have to check out the color scheme on a few other computers because the text is very easy to read on my screens. Thanks for the suggestion!

HTML5 seems to be the way of the future, so I'm definitely exploring that as an option.
