Could anyone provide a current list of HN spin-offs and YC funded startups? Or just add yourself if applicable, I would really appreciate it, thank you.
Yes, that's the list for the Y Combinator startups. Does anyone have a similar thing for those coming from or first posted on hackernews? I guess this would be all those weekend projects and "Please Rate My App" posts.
