Startup Founder Blogs His Company's Downfall

Here's something you don't see too often: a startup founder blogging about all the reasons his company is about to fail.

In a new Tumblr called "My Startup Has 30 Days to Live," one anonymous founder describes quitting his job two years ago to start a new company, achieving all the initial success a one could ask for — press coverage, a spot in a prominent startup accelerator — only to have it all go wrong.

After joining the accelerator, the founder wrote, "Our initial desire to not raise a seed round was dismissed and we were thoroughly convinced that we had to continue on the VC rocket-ship in order to matter to anyone." The founder referred to this as the "first in a series of many mistakes."
