Comment on Ask YC: Status of your startup

Comments

We launched http://bug.gd in late 2007 as a way for everyone to search and capture solutions to error messages. Happily, it was covered on TechCrunch, Digg, Mashable, etc. Exciting stuff. We recently created a full Firefox extension that makes it even more natural. http://bug.gd/download

bug.gd plans to drive its revenue through corporate intranet sales of our software and P2P helpdesk solutions. The public-facing error database is expected to always be free and ad-free as a consequence.

Interesting primarily to places like YC, we're about to announce our http://featurelist.org which is really just a tool we use for our feature tracking and thought we'd open it up to the world. It's a free little Reddit-inspired site for startups and open source projects to let their community vote on features. Anyone can host a project there and have users visit http://featurelist.org/MYPROJECT to request/vote on features. This will probably go public beta in a couple of weeks, but it's really just a gift back to the community more than anything we want to make $$$ with.

Very, very busy lately. Back to work. :)
