Your startup is not a startup, it’s just a website.
The guy who runs the accelerator program at my university once yelled at me for calling my startup a website when I was explaining it to him. He told me to call it a product or a service and that I should NEVER EVER call it a website - and that "fuck, my 5 year old son can make a shit website". It really made the rest of the phone call awkward since he kept talking down to me and I was being super careful to avoid the W word.<p>Thoughts on his advice? He was the only investor I've ever talked to so just wondering for the future when talking to other investors...
