I am a startup scouting and marketing guy. Looking for some good alternatives to Crunchbase. Open, paywalled, industry specific, interested in all types of them.

I am a startup scouting and marketing guy. I'm looking for some upcoming pre-seed / seed funding rounds info (directories, listings or anything).

Tons of press releases on closed rounds. However, discovering upcoming ones is somewhat difficult. Please feel free to share yours if you are thinking of raising VC money or drop a link to anything related and worth digging into (apart from Crunchbase).

Have a nice day everyone!

We’re building a social content recommendation service – LikeHack.com. And yep, we get email.

A couple of those letters included some kind of complaints about the pictures of folks on our main page pointing out that “they are not a developer, designer or young mummy” and that “this is just pathetic to use clipart”.

First of all, we’d love to ask you guys about whether or not it’s really this bad for a startup to go for some clipart usage. Seems like a natural way.

Second, we’d love to work on this issue (100k VC funding woah! 8) and ask you – real developers and designers (and mb even young mummies) to send us your pictures (preferably high def ones).

And third, we’d love to give out some Amazon Gift Cards to those who’d be so kind to send us their pictures together with some feedback on our product. Tell us about anything you like and don’t like (except the fact that we’re using clipart of course).

Email for your feedback: Dmitry Yanin <dima@freshle.com>

Thank you for your time HN.
