Still haven’t gotten my denial letter yet (LOL).

So does this mean that I should contact people in my network to go and recommend me?

Is YC going to read all these recommendations or is it going to be only forwarded to the person applying?

My interpretation was that he meant most of the businesses nowadays does very similar things, so relationship between professionals and clients is what's going to separate them.

And that the next wave of innovation will be platforms that supports this.

What are some of your long term goals? Do you see enterprise companies such as Godaddy using your product to schedule their appointments? Or do you see yourself mainly focused on small businesses?

Love it when YC alumni's do AMAs!

What was your growth rate for the first 3 months of launching Gobble and how did you acquire your first batch of users?

Also, "I just searched my email for "sit this one out", "going to pass", "won't get there", "not the right fit", and "not going to get to the finish line", and I think we're at 200+."

Is that "200+" denials for VC/angel funding??

For dating, I recommend Tinder. You can explicitly say you're new to the area and just wanna make friends (they might think you're lying).

You can also go to meetup.com and find stuff you're interested in.

Bars are fun, I guess, but usually people go with groups so meehhhhh.

Group A: Group B isn't informed. If they were, they would vote for Group A.

If someone were to vote on your website, how long would it take?

One of the main reasons why people don't vote is not being informed enough. Let's be honest, we hate the media and a lot of people don't know WHAT to believe anymore.

So do you have any plans on educating the people to think more logically and look at statistics for example when choosing to vote? Of course I'm not suggesting you to have any bias towards any candidates, but rather educate the people on what they vote for.
