Hotspots.io team (YCW11) acquired by Twitter

  • Congrats to Matt, Sandy, and Ashu! Matt has been very generous in helping me navigate through the ups and downs of startups. He's been giving me startup advice and direction for the past year and a half (starting back when I had nothing) and I don't think I would have made it out here to work on Sonalight if it weren't for him.

    Since moving on from moki.tv, they've been hard at work on hotspots.io and I'm really glad it worked out for all three of them.

  • When did Hotspots.io launch? Did they ever broadly launch? I hadn't heard of them and couldn't find anything except news on the acquisition.

  • Twitter buys exclusively YC alumnis or what?

  • Is there a chance we'll know the acquisition price?

  • Congrats guys! How much?

  • Reading the announcement would it be wrong to say this is a talent acquisition?

  • another cool startup bites the dust, have fun at the day job.
