Links to websites are probably the best thing you can include on a resume. They are nice checkboxes on paper, but playing with something you built is invaluable.

It is a free country, but this is a gross idea. Thankfully it seems not to be attracting any entrants. MIT's 100K competition gives almost the same cash outlay for no equity and MU…

Personal Fabrication Machines. Not expensive/rare 3D printers though, there are over 1MM personal paper cutting machines like the CriCut and CraftRobo that have already been sold. …

Ivan, I am looking for a couple people: http://ycombinator-w10-cofounder-search.tumblr.com/ Are you looking to relocate to the US?
