Hi PH,
Excited to share SandHill.io with the community! I’m a former VC who spent the past 5 years at thesis-driven seed-stage firms. One of the activities I found most helpful in my role to spark new ideas or theses and to expand my knowledge of the shifts happening around us was to read all the latest insights from other VCs & startup analysts.
This became a little tough over the past...

Huge fan of the analyses @mdagabriele pulls together. The collaborative nature of bringing investors/analysts/operators from different asset classes & industries to analyze these businesses is brilliant!

I like the concept but I wonder if you can really create a publication that covers startups everywhere outside of Silicon Valley and still cover enough stories in the specific locations to get people interested. For the bigger stories, the existing tech media sites already cover things internationally/outside Silicon Valley.
I follow a bunch of location specific newsletters (techjuice.pk, the...

I really like the feature of suggesting alums to reach out to, would love to give that a try. Seems like only suggesting one job at a time would make the app a lot more time intensive, will come down to how good their recommendation engine is.
Excited to give it a try once this is up on the app store. The job hunt process for college students definitely needs to be improved.

Had to comment here because of the Gif - I studied in Stockholm for 6 months and Flippin' burgers was one of my favorite food places!!
The app seems really cool. I don't use Uber much because I live on a college campus, but I can see myself having used this at a few internships in the past.

Cool concept but there were several errors when I tried to archive the app after following the instructions. Since I don't have any experience with mac/swift dev I tried for a bit to understand the bug but then gave up. Good in theory but a bit difficult to set up if you're not technical - I am and still ran into issues.
I've used Fluid before and really like it. Definitely a lot simpler to...

@orenbarzilai This is really cool! I especially like the feature of connecting to Buffer in order to seamlessly add the badge to shared links.
Will this remain a free product for individual users or do you plan to monetize it at some point?

I've been using Polymail for the last few weeks and absolutely love it. It has a beautifully designed interface and I love the suite of features it provides (many of which Brandon mentioned above).
My favorite part is how fast the team has been shipping updates with requests from the community. Really looking forward to see where this product goes.

This looks fantastic. I've been seriously considering nomad development as a career after I graduate and this definitely looks like something I'd enjoy!

I generally use Keep to manage simple tasks or for short notes. Doesn't really compete much with what I use Evernote for (class notes, project ideas, etc).

I was studying abroad in the spring during which I took over 10,000 photos. I've been planning to go back and select the best ones to post online but I've been too scared to get started because of the volume. I'll finally give it a go this weekend with Gallery Doctor.

I got to test Jobstart earlier this year when it launched at my university (U Illinois). Back then it was a bit difficult to find good mentors but it seems like that's been improved greatly. It's a great concept that's really beneficial to college students (like me) who're trying to figure out what to do after graduation.
