This is basically the refutation of many of the negative comments in yesterday's post<i>. You go, dude.<p></i> <a href="http://news.ycombinator.org/item?id=2942129" rel="nofollow">http://news.ycombinator.org/item?id=2942129</a>
Congrats. I recalled when you posted this project launch on HN <a href="http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=1829101" rel="nofollow">http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=1829101</a><p>Not bad for a "lazy Sunday afternoon" worth of work.
Congratulations! Did they offer you more because it was coded in CFML and they didn't laugh at your back end?<p>Maybe more time for you to recreate F'd Company now?
Congrats on the acquisition. You're quite prolific when it comes to churning out the various web apps you produce.<p>Could you give us some insight into how you come up with the ideas for your apps? What's your thought process for determining whether an idea is worth pursuing or not?<p>Congrats again. Your success has always been an inspiration to me and is very well deserved.
Just out of curiosity (since you said ask me anything) -- How much did you sell TinyLetter for, and will you be joining Mailchimp? (What did the terms of the deal look like for this sort of acquisition?)
