The people at Bootup, both the startups and management, are great folks who
care about tech, care about the community and about innovation. The character
assassinations of the people involved are unwarranted.

Securing funding is always hard, and the whole VC scene is crazy. Some
companies get millions thrown at them even though they've been burning cash
for years, others have great ideas and just can't secure some pocket change to
get going. As far as I can see, Bootup is doing a pretty good job.

Out of curiosity I looked for Isaac Asimov, but he wasn't there. Instead, I
looked at Mark Twain. The site only lists his novels, and curiously one of his
short stories. Twain wrote a lot of short stories (also available in
collections) which aren't on the list.

Also, it uses a line graph to connect publication dates and word counts, but
the line between those points is meaningless. At best it should be a step
graph, where the height is based on the number of words for a publication
divided by the time between publications.
