I quit my job, sold all of my stuff, traveled for a year and then started the travel company I desperately wanted but couldn't find. Unanchor answers the questions: what should I do & how should I get around? We sell tour itineraries that give you the tour guide experience at a fraction of the cost. We're ready to make our first PR push and would love for you to be the one to break our story.

I am the co-founder of CoderCharts LLC. HireBooth is our programming testing platform for businesses (http://hirebooth.com ... soon to be launched). We aim at helping companies cut time and cost in screening job applicants' skills. We believe the process of hiring programmers can be conducted more effectively.
It would be great if we can have you look at our platform and give us some feedbacks.

Jon – If you are looking for an interesting technology product to try out from a undiscovered killer team, I am it, seriously. Just yesterday I got my very first press for a music app I’ve been building for almost a year http://www.betabeat.com/2011/08/18/letslisten-aims-to-be-a-turntable-killer/ I just moved to SF a few months ago. I’ve got a hell of a story to tell.

I am a Canadian with a ton of personality that will not only foster an amazing relationship with Jon BUT I bring a TON of questions.... Everyone loves a Question Queen with spunk - come on! (p.s. I feel this is a great reason to meet everyone on this panel!)

I'm at a teen startup incubator in Mountain View called Teens in Tech. Last Friday we had our demo day where I be presented http://www.MySchoolHelp.com. Jon, you're the kind of person I'd love to hang out with sometime to chat and learn from your experience.

We've been very low profile with RewardMe, avoiding most press. We've just raised $850K and was listed at Top 10 Companies to Watch by AlwaysOn. We think it's time to become a bit more public. We're also implementing our product into big brands like Denny's, Wetzel's Pretzels, and more. We think we have an exciting opportunity of bringing the "inevitable future" to the present. Also, we'd love to learn from your experiences as you have seen tons of startups rise and fail!

Actually, as The LinkedIn Ninja, I would think that Jon would want to talk to me! I just checked out his profile (http://www.linkedin.com/in/jonmitchell87) and I can definitely give some tips for improvement:-) Other than that, I am on the cutting edge of providing training, consulting, and strategies on how to more effectively use LinkedIn for sales and business development. Over the next few months, I also hope to have a tool that will help make usage of a key LinkedIn feature that has been proven to generate business much more efficient and effective - but that's hush, hush until I get my developers and funding in place - but it will be big for LinkedIn power users.
I'm particularly curious to learn how best to get the attention of people like Jon to get visibility while helping them provide great content. That's going to be particularly important for me when I get this web app project off the ground. I'm sure there is a fine line between stalking/harassing and providing interesting information.
Finally, I'm just a neat-o person to talk to - at least that's what my mom tells me (even though she knows nothing about my business, LinkedIn, social media or the internet) - and I like to believe her:-).

I am a young punk from Singapore who is currently starting out my 2nd startup in the technology and art space. I will be going to Techcrunch Disrupt in Beijing and just came back to Singapore from Silicon Valley. I will love to have a skype meeting with you to have a chat.

I have created an adhoc social networking iPhone app called Locally for neighbors to communicate, share & organize. Neighborhood websites have backfired in the past. I am working with different assumptions. It would be nice to run my assumptions and objectives by Jon. Also, I need to ask Jon how he tracks startups that have not yet received funding.
