I took the survey but I wanted to share this thought here for some additional feedback. I work with some of the larger deals sites and having learned a lot about how they operate I cannot stress enough that if you are going to move into a niche market focus on value. This means potentially less deals and less often but in the case of your audience being focused on hackers, quality will win.

In the survey you offered time with Investors. This is something that I am sure would be in massive demand because this isn't something readily available to most people and could add tremendous value to any start up.

Other things to consider along the same lines would be a service less focused on regular deals but more on opportunities. We have access to Consultants who do x,y, or z. They could be investors, marketers, hackers, business develop folks or any other high value service. You would make those people available to a business for say 1 hour to discuss anything you care to. Now that would exciting!

Great idea regarding the consultants. I'm sure there are a ton of consultants who would be happy to work with startups for cheap, in order to build long-term relationships.

Fantastic idea!
