Christmas in October for new startups - Y Combinator winter cycle

After starting our business and this blog we’ve heard from a number of people who are interested in starting their own business.  It brings joy to our eyes to see more people taking the plunge :)  If you’re one of those people and you are in the ideation phase and looking for some capital to get jump started, check out the Y Combinator Winter Funding cycle.  Y Combinator is new kind of venture firm that focuses mainly on the idea and the people (and not the business plan).  They take a more hands-off approach to incubation than others.  Basically, you get a few thousand bucks, incorporated, and then they let you do what you do.

I think we may be a little too far along to go for it, but I’m never one to rule out taking money ;)  If you have an idea, you should definitely give it a shot.  What’s the harm?  All you need to do is submit an application form by October 18, 2006.

Good luck!
