This seems very similar to the Venture hacks Angel List, which has recently relaunched.

http://venturehacks.com/angellist

Several angels have tweeted about the list, as it's a good way to report what they're interested in, who they want you to go through (Or if they prefer direct contact), what types of communities they support, etc.


Yes. AngelList is the way to go for reputable angels and provides the right information for entrepreneurs.

I don't think this google docs is going anywhere. Improvisation and amateurism is not a good idea in that field (sorry for the harsh comment, I don't know how to express it more nicely -- but really, check out angellist and then if you come up with something better, do it).


I believe the idea for this list came from this discussion (which also pointed out what you mentioned) - http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=1103669

Still, a good idea! :)


I'll definitely be bookmarking this one, as I am not quite ready to put myself out there for the whole world, but I'd love to contact people directly if they were looking for something like what I'm doing (or who and where I am).


Money isn't everything. It would be nice to have a section that lists the angels experiences.

One can easily bootstrap, having little money but its much more difficult to bootstrap having no experience. I would give up a portion of my venture just for the right experience capital. Money is just a plus.


Mentor spreadsheet?

I've been thinking of doing this for a few weeks, so I did it.


We should create a poll to see what spreadsheets people want to see :)
