So I'm the guy behind Hit Forge.

It's changed - that PR is obsolete (Thanks PG, for helping with the strategy shift).

We're a straight early stage seed-investment fund. We invest in social-media early-stage web startups, putting in between $100-$500k. We maintain specialist resources to help with SEO and Viral Marketing. We provide free office space to our companies, if they want them. We have a one-page no-hassle termsheet, where we buy something that looks a lot like common stock. We don't try to control the company. We help with future fundraising (see my blog at http://www.venturehacks.com). And we decide very quickly.

PG pointed this out to me as a gap in the market for early stage web companies, and he is absolutely right.

See you all at Y-Combinator D-Day.
