Ask HN: What service do you prefer for incorporating?

I second that! Nolo has some wonderful resources available, both online and in print. If you wanna thumb through the book mentioned above there's usually a copy laying around your local Barnes and Nobles. I'd recommend reading it even if you plan on using a service later on. It's great info to have, and a very accessible read.
Only sidenote, in California the Secretary of State's rules, timelines and fees change all the time. Always double check anything you read on the SOS website http://www.sos.ca.gov/business/be/

Just came across http://www.clerky.com which seems to be a preferred method but lots of startups. Anyone used them?
I haven't used it myself, but I've had close friends use Clerky and speak highly of it.

2. Ryan Roberts at http://robertsfoster.com/
Used them both and happy with them.

http://www.incfile.com is decent, but it's cheaper to just do it yourself. Most times it's not hard, you just need to submit a few forms.

If you're planning to look for venture funding, you need guidance beyond what's covered in this book, but it's still a good intro.
