		<description>I just launch a classified ad website for the spanish speaking market, and am going through the same inicial phaces here.
It takes a lot of work to get thing done. However, at the end of the day, only those who really want thing to happen will make things happen.

		<description>Fabrice,

Your story conveys a lot of passion, guts, and set a good example of what an entrepreneur is. Thank you for sharing it. 

Would you also share the story behind your first company while you were an international student at Princeton? Perhaps you could do it a future, but would you?

Once again, thank you for your inspiring post.</description>

		<description>This is great. Some valuable lessons here. However I think now the times are different. If you don&#039;t have a track record of building companies, VCs want to see traction in both traffic and revenue. Which is not simple to do without funding :) It&#039;s the chicken and the egg puzzle. Thanks for sharing this.</description>

		<description>Hi, I&#039;ve been reading your blog for a couple of years now and just today remembered to post your blog on a forum of entrepreneurs where I&#039;m a member in the &quot;Fastlane Multi-Millionaire Stories&quot; section. I thought it would be polite to send you the link: link:http://www.thefastlanetomillions.com/showthread.php?t=11277</description>
