#2This is hilarious and awesome! Its always uplifting to see people turn something bad (or in startup world "educational") into something fun and humble. Respect.

#3What's with that useless static header? Very distracting.
That said, interesting concept.

#7Great idea. A brilliant opportunity to learn from the mistakes of your peers and to help out others with your war stories.

#9Very nice, especially for NYC, which doesn't (yet?) have a culture of respecting honorable failures.

#10Somewhat timely. I just announced the death of my first SaaS project to the users (https://www.pingbrigade.com): a web site/server uptime monitoring system. What kept me going is that people kept signing up for the free accounts, but either the free offer was too good, or the paid offer didn't offer enough of an incentive to switch. Eventually, the minuscule costs of running the service started adding up to a number I could no longer ignore and I don't have time to do the marketing to acquire paid users. Logically it all makes sense, but it is hard to separate yourself from your failed project.
