Entrepreneurs: Connect w/Amazing People to Start Companies/Projects With

Hi there,

FounderDating (FD) is an invite-only, online network for entrepreneur to connect with cofounders.

• High Quality - members are carefully screened for quality and readiness (no recruiters, etc.) Applications and members’ identities are confidential, but a few of the folks who are part of the network are former founders or early employees from: stackmob, snapfish, Zynga, Loggly and Gilt just to name a few.
• Balanced - 50% engineering & 50% non-engineering
• No Idea Necessary - FD is about the people, so you don’t need to have an idea, just be ready to work on a serious side project

# Example of the Active Tracker API
# One javascript call at the top of your page can send any events you want to Mixpanel, Kissmetrics, etc
# Given a few links like this:
# <a href="http://google.com" data-event-name="google" data-event-properties="'target': 'google', 'username': 'nate'"></a>
# Then:
# active_tracker.track_links();
# ... sends an event called "google" 
# ... with JSON properties "'target': 'google', 'username': 'nate', 'environment': 'development'"
# ... to all of your registered event providers (in this case, mixpanel and kissmetrics)
