Ask YC: What's Your Favorite Startup Resource? (howtosplitanatom.com)

My customers/users. They give me specific advice on how to make my product better, AND they sometimes give me money (without taking an equity stake).


Sounds like customers are the main thing a company needs!


Hopefully this is helpful to some of you. I took some time to compile a list of startup resources ranging from Marketing to Hiring. This list is by no means exhaustive,but it isn't bad.

To make it better, I need your help.

Are there any sites/templates/blogs that you would recommend to young entrepreneurs? If so, what are they?

I want to include as many of your suggestions as I can.

(P.S. - offline "resources" are also welcome)


Why not just make it a wiki? I'm experimenting with a wiki for developers and testers about which libraries and services actually work (http://www.devdiligence.com). It is pretty hard to get people to update a wiki page with what they know -- I imagine it will be even harder to get people outside of this community to send you info.


I made something similar to this a while back for my friends:

http://www.squidoo.com/startup


http://safari.oreilly.com/

for ~$500 a year (per person not sure on bulk licenses) access to all the IT books you could possibly want/need. (well almost all)


Sweet, was just studying at my school library and it's prepaid.


libraries another favorite resource :D


"Startup" is a pretty broad category, but for funding advice, http://www.venturehacks.com is hard to beat.


Good point, added.


HN/YC/PG

seems like the right answer. Do I pass?


They're already on there. ;)


actually the feed for paul grahams essays aren't it should be under blogs to read (even though technically it isn't a blog).


Ack. I'll take care of that. Thanks for the heads up.
