Yes, it was exactly those articles ('Ideas for Startups' and 'How to Start a Startup') that solidified my intentions to leave the (poorly managed) startup I was currently working on and do my own thing. I have never looked back. The comment I was referring to didn't appear in an article, but rather in a conversation when pg said something like (paraphrasing) "We have seen enough applications with ideas for online dating sites." If I am mistaken about this, then I apologize, perhaps I simply didn't limn the context or feeling of the statement. In any case, my original intent in commenting was to say, 'Follow your heart and your dreams, regardless of what the world says.' You will almost certainly learn something valuable from this experience.
