Sunday, October 18, 2009 at 03:55AM Keiretsu Countdown Timer - UPDATED
Jason has given all of "angel" groups who charge startups to present to them 30 days to drop their fees (starting from Friday's episode). We're tracking how much time they have left to drop the fees and announce on their site that they've done so.
If they haven't stopped charging startups by November 15th @ 1pm, we'll be launching the Open Angel Forum to put them out of business. Stay tuned for details.
UPDATE: Amazing News! We've convinced Keiretsu to drop some of their fees! Read about it at Silicon Alley Insider. Still waiting on updates from the rest of these guys - the counter continues!

I find it not a little ironic that Chris says there is no free lunch, but also recommends 99 Designs where hundreds of designers invest thousands of hours for the hope of "winning" a design contest. Talk about walking on the backs of others. How about spending money on a designer instead of freeloading off designers' backs?
