If you have an interesting story to tell, you should tell it. At best you'll help people by recounting your experiences and likely have some interesting conversation in the process. At worst you'll have lost nothing but the 30 minutes it takes to write the post.

#12What is this? The Digital Point forums?
Re: My startup made $300K in the first week.
#13Naturally we're interested. Like a fellow commenter mentions, though, the numbers seem off.
Give us a little more to work with here.
$300K revenue in seven days is spectacular for a startup with $100 in funding making a website about cute cat pictures.
It's less spectacular when there's a pile of VC money, the revenue comes from steel trading deals and the profit on the $300K is about $10.
But hey, I'd be interested in reading about it either way. Fire up that blog engine and submit some links!

#17See the way it works, is that I sell you the right to sell this book for a small cut, and then you sell that right to other people but you take a cut, so its LIKE a pyramid scheme, but its not actually one ... I swear.
I know that "Explaining a joke is like dissecting a frog: you understand it better, but the frog dies in the process." , but could you elaborate what are you talking about?

#19I'm interested in hearing your story. I'd even be interested if your revenues came from porn or gambling.

#20The website for GoTryThis2 looks like a spam e-mail. I am looking at it, and I can't actually figure out what it does. Is it a webapp? A piece of software that I download? Something else? All I see is "affiliate marketing", "increase profits" blah blah blah. I don't mean to sound like I am bitter or something - I am sure you make a lot of money doing whatever it is you are doing, but the feel and presentation of your gotrythis.com site is a major turn-off, the same kind of turn-off I get when I consider the possibility of making a business out of spamming or domain squatting.
