The ability to "favorite" threads would be nice as well.

just FYI, Chrome browser does a decent job in translating the page to English

I really like the domain name, I wonder how often it gets misspelled :)

another way you can go about it is just store things locally on a client machine.. although you may need to explain that unless they sign up their notes will not be saved globally.

I think it is geared more towards mobile apps, which rely on remote db calls anyway.

You are right. You don't have to. You're (or is it your) probably don't have the time for it, cause u have a pile of resumes that u need to go through and filter out the keywords... If I came across this link and I was hiring, I would be interested to know more.. Why? Cause I am intrigued.. Cause the person stood out for me... The approach is creative, unique and definitely ballsy... Should all of that suggest that the candidate is worth the position.. of course not.. but he proved that he can be unique and exercise creativity, I would want to know more, while leaving the task of filtering out the keywords from the resumes to recruiters who don't know sh... (shtuff is a word) :)

I understand all the reasons for the exits and I realize that proper exit strategies must be planned ahead of time. The reason I opened this thread was to ask whether the effort and popular obsession with exits is something that needs to be done/thought of prior to starting to work on the startups? Is proper exit strategy is a deal breaker for starting a company... I believe there might tons of reason for an exit once the startups becomes a sustainable business (as many of u pointed out)... But unless u are a investor or a seasonal entrepreneur is it something that u need to be obsessed with when planning your startup?!

I understand. You are gunning for either all or nothing... I just wanted to point out that perhaps u can strike an in between option.. which might benefit all at the end and make it a win-win given the circumstances.

I chose to quit my full time job for the benefit of my own startup, the difference was I hated the company that I was working for and I hated the job... In your case I would suggest to look into a part time deal. It seems like you have a good rapport with your employer and u have the integrity and the dignity to realize what is fair and such... See, if u can reduce your involvement with your employer to say 30%.. Just a thought. Good Luck!

I think there are many other factors that will attribute to scaling and growth beside the exit strategy.

The fact that the person that founded the company might not be the right person to run it after a certain period, I think it is a very valid point... Still, in my humble opinion I personally think that thinking or discussing the exit strategies before u actually found a company is a disservice to yourself.. sort of demonstrates that one is obsessed with the "desired" outcome and not so much with the opportunity to make something better, which makes the loyalty to the startup idea somewhat questionable.

For the second company, did u plan for an exit right from the start?
