Since it's not all about the pricing for SSL pricing, I can recommend this site:

They provide a pretty nice overview about edge locations and other important options for considering to use a certain service.

This sums Medium pretty much up.

As you have might already noticed: http://www.youtube.com/channel/UCcefcZRL2oaA_uBNeo5UOWg/vide...

I've found the one of Mark Zuckerberg here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ynly5L_XAwY (Not an official YC channel)

Maybe there will be a seperate channel on YouTube again like for startup school 2012:

To me it looks kind of similar to https://svbtle.com/, which is a network of chosen writers with multiple blogs aggregated to a single site.

@mitchellh Congratulations first! As I've been reading your tweets I've been guessing that you would starting, which focuses you on Vagrant.

I have a few questions: When did you think about the first time and when did you really decide to do this step? How do you start? Bootstrap it by your own or try to go with for a VC? How are you planning the addon open source/paid addon ratio will be like?

I wish you all the best for your company. And because I've been using Vagrant every day: Thank you very much.

> When did you think about the first time and when did you really decide to do this step?

The inkling of a possibility of something like this only entered my head around March/April 2012. I committed to the idea in June 2012.

> How do you start? Bootstrap it by your own or try to go with for a VC?

I'm attempting to bootstrap it on my own for now, because I think I have a solid foundation so there is a clear line to revenue. Of course, my runway to do this is much shorter than if I had VC funding. On the other hand, I have a lot more freedom without VC funding.

> How are you planning the addon open source/paid addon ratio will be like?

There will be many more open source add-ons, and I think it should be this way.

Thank YOU for using Vagrant. :)

Seriously, how are they going to make money in the future? Is it just free in the alpha?

Every time people think about a solution about this (to my mind) huge e-mail issue I'm really happy to be not the only one who is sick of the existing solutions out there.

I used to use things like Dropbox or other syncing services and then share the link of a file, which is for me an okay solution. But not what makes me really happy.

Your idea looks also interesting, but how do you want to manage things like the file storage time? Do you want to store them permanent? What will become also some interesting challenge is to make the "send file functionality" everywhere in the world fast, regarding up- and downstream.

Really looking forward if other people will find an idea soon. I've been thinking for a while now about it and still never found the kick-ass idea.

I wish you all the best for your product.

Ps: on the bottom of your website is a "-->".

Best, Felix

saying that git is the new ftp is to my mind not correct. I read that git doesnt handle big files very well the coder from the backup tool "bup" has written. That was why he invented bup.

Correct me if I am wrong, I would really love to replace ftp with git.

You're right. git may require lots of RAM for big changesets (involving big files), and definitely more RAM than SFTP (oh, please never use FTP).

But the post is about deployments and not about transferring files.

Really great Idea! But where can people find the site which you have mentioned on the video?
