Shutdown one startup (Notifo) with one awesome cofounder and started Picplum.com with another awesome cofounder and we became roommates too. 24/7 startup bliss!

Notifo still seems to be running?

Up for now:

"While Notifo will continue to run in the interim, I encourage you to find alternative methods to accomplish your notification needs." http://blog.notifo.com/notifo

I have started a new startup, but haven't started a company just yet. Where I live it would be a suicide, and I only plan to start one once the project is ready to make money or raise investment. Which answer should I choose? ;)

Isn't a startup a company? I'm guessing u're refering to a "project"/"webapp" as "startup"?

In my view, a startup is a commercial project -- which these days can easily be done online without formal incorporation, even by a single person. And if having a formal company hurts more than not having it, the choice is simple.
