Limited time preview of my rejected YC site: http://www.dashler.com/?yc_preview=true

Hi.

I'm 24 and live in NYC. I recently quit my full-time to seed my own ideas for a few months.

I started off in one direction, coasted around, then started island hopping. I've finally arrived on an island resembling paradise, nearby Mozilla's Ubiquity. I'm building the swiss army knife of browsing, and in the process, another dimension to the internet you know and love. Not quite web 3.0, more like web 2.1, I'm aiming supplement already existing web services to benefit the end user.

It will be my pleasure to launch at the end of this month.
