Are you looking for a paid job? or you want to join another startup as a partner? or are you looking to invest?
For paid jobs and joining other start ups twitter is actually pretty handy. Follow some companies, people you like and they are always tweeting/retweeting opportunities. Make sure to also follow incubators they are always retweeting about jobs for their companies.
Good point, it is an important distinction to be made but I did mean over priced. One company charged me (ripped me off) $500 for 3 "unique" logo and business card concepts. They had a very good rating and feedback on the site and looked trustworthy. I paid them, 4 hours later they provided me 3 stock images (which I traced to iStock) with my contact info on it. The stock images they used were also totally unrelated and generic. When I complained the response I got was "You paid for 3 concepts and we delivered." So I emailed the CEO of the company and it turns out the guy I was dealing with was the CEO! Lessons to be learned.
thanks for themeforest.net, the site I had been using in the past was costing $75-250 per template and they were geared more towards commercial than what I needed. These are much more in tune with what I am looking for.
