Ask HN: First Startup Launch Checklist?

[borat4prez]

Launching my community based startup in a couple weeks. It's a rails app. I'm a frontend dev and found a great guy on HN to help with the backend. Figured instead of trying to perfect it, I should launch and go from there. Any tips for me? Feeling anxious about it, but I'm prepared to fail or succeed.

Analytics. The most valuable thing that can come out of an early launch is insight as to what works and what doesn't. Where are users losing interest and not engaging?

Thanks. Do you think Google Analytics would suffice or should I use additional sources?
