I'm not criticizing, I'm wondering what their returns are. We know YC has had some huge hits... has 500?

nothing like DropBox or AirBnB as yet, however hopefully a few Herokus on the way;)

looking good so far: Twilio, SendGrid (TechStars), Wildfire (fbFund), MakerBot, TaskRabbit (fbFund), Smule/Khush, Viki, Medialets, Zozi, ElaCarte (YC), 9Gag (500), ReadyForZero (YC), several others @ Series A/B/C doing pretty solid.

smaller but growing well: MindSnacks (DreamIt), 955 Dreams (500), PicCollage (500), Kiwi Crate, Visually (500), AppStack, MyGengo, Erply (SeedCamp), GinzaMetrics (YC), Farmeron (SeedCamp), ZenCoder (YC), Fitocracy (500), StyleSeat.

10+ modest early exits to Google, Twitter, LinkedIn (x3), Amazon, Groupon, Cisco, Facebook, ReturnPath, DemandForce, etc.

(apologies to any juggernauts or others i left out!)

MyGengo has built a fantastically useful tool which has saved me a ton of time and money. I don't know anything about the addressable market size, but they have <i>nailed</i> the product.

Cool - thanks.

they've had some great exits (Backtype for one) and are in on some great companies like Twilio, Fitocracy, Sendgrid, Wildfire, and TaskRabbit.

Honestly, 10 have already exited, and they have at least half a dozen impressive companies in the pipe.

Are these companies AirBnB or Dropbox? Probably not, though Twilio is legit.
