Are you tired of trying to figure out which startups are worth your time? Instagraph? Tweetr? Who can keep track?!? Just sign on to Peelr and we'll sort it all out for you!
I think overall the big difference I see between interesting startups and boring ones is that interesting startups try to expand into a wider platform rather than just solve the small problem they were designated to solve.
Do you think thats a product of people solving their own problem, then expanding into fixing the issue for pretty much everyone (a la heroku)? Or is it just projects that have that larger vision?
