Have you thought of making the WayBackLetter a section of the HNL? Seems like you already have a great audience that wouldn't mind receiving a few links of all-time HN goodness in it. You could then save the neat WBL domain for multi-purpose cool reads from across the web!
Congrats Kale. I've been loving TimeHop lately and think it'll equally apply to non-social content. Is there a way you can scale 'curation'? This is something I'm currently researching for The Fetch...
Not sure who holds the account password - it might be @nedwin. I actually work at the Melbourne-based YC startup Adioso.com. The cofounders Tom and Fenn led the last one a bit.
These threads are worth viewing for info on previous meetups:
Yeah, having Australian YC founders is awesome for championing our local startup communities too. There was a decent turnout at the the YC Melbourne meetup in February.
Nice first post and like how you've written it in a gender-neutral tone. It kind of depresses me as I envy people who have supporting partners, and feel as an entrepreneurial woman those attributes are harder to come by in a male partner. I know it's generalising, but most guys want to take the centre stage. Do they want to hold the home and emotional front together? Probably not. Sigh... :-)
I did a similar thing recently. I had so many things I wanted to work on and no time to do them, especially while working fulltime or being tied to one location. As they say - you can always get money back, but not time or opportunities. It's not a conventional path to take, but it certainly challenges your creativity and willpower. And as Xavier put it – it's about the freedom to say yes.
