@DanielleMorrill How did you decide what companies to include or the order? Some have declining MM growth scores. Others 0% movement.
— Kate Kendall (@KateKendall) February 8, 2016
@KateKendall I just picked what I thought looked interesting, high growth scores overall, decent team size, some time since last round
— Danielle Morrill (@DanielleMorrill) February 8, 2016
@DanielleMorrill Ah, I think MM could use its voice and influence to democratize VC funding further via greater transparency on scoring. 🦄
— Kate Kendall (@KateKendall) February 8, 2016
.@DanielleMorrill just showed how @Mattermark gives you an unfair advantage over competitors. Look at this list! https://t.co/0qcR2D04YK
— Wayne Vaughan (@WayneVaughan) February 8, 2016
I feel like Accion is sort of a mic drop. If I could do any Series A, it would be theirs.
— Danielle Morrill (@DanielleMorrill) February 8, 2016
Love seeing @codeclimate & @DocSend in this list. Use these regularly & love! https://t.co/WXRsvGVaci

Think it's time to call it: the official winners of #sb50 were @Beyonce, @DanielleMorrill, @Drake, #puppies, #LeftShark, @MINI and @twitter
— Steve Moraco (@SteveMoraco) February 8, 2016
@DanielleMorrill @Mattermark don't forget - University of Illinois comp-sci track record is a healthy indicator as well! :D
— Wiley Jones (@wileycwj) February 8, 2016
@wileycwj @Mattermark absolutely!
— Danielle Morrill (@DanielleMorrill) February 8, 2016
in case you are wondering, one thing I check is the last time the company has tweeted. If it is consumer and has been weeks... not good
— Danielle Morrill (@DanielleMorrill) February 8, 2016
@DanielleMorrill put Ionic on your radar. Growth score is above most of them :) https://t.co/kB0Q9JetCn
— Max Lynch (@maxlynch) February 8, 2016
@DanielleMorrill @Mattermark though we weren't founded in 2002. 2012 is more correct (I submitted a correction)
— Max Lynch (@maxlynch) February 8, 2016
@maxlynch @Mattermark eek! Thanks for submitting that, we will get it fixed :)
— Danielle Morrill (@DanielleMorrill) February 8, 2016
@DanielleMorrill I think you are either making, or ruining, every early stage VC's evening. Would love to see @trello use stats right now.
— Michelle Tandler (@michelletandler) February 8, 2016
@michelletandler @trello hopefully making!
— Danielle Morrill (@DanielleMorrill) February 8, 2016
@DanielleMorrill @michelletandler hard to concentrate and choose between your tweet storm or Drake/TMobile or Doritos commercial
— Steve Weiner (@steve_wein) February 8, 2016
@DanielleMorrill you've won the #SB50 ad war and saved $5 million. Well done!

There, now you understand my goal. https://t.co/HzZO3t88ca
— Danielle Morrill (@DanielleMorrill) February 8, 2016
Are you a full-time seed-stage investor & @DanielleMorrill hasn't tweeted about a single one of your companies tonight? I know how you feel.
— Justin Label (@justinlabel) February 8, 2016
@justinlabel @DanielleMorrill probably very good, actually. All of the seed funds I know have much better companies.
— Keith Rabois (@rabois) February 8, 2016
@rabois @justinlabel maybe they've already raised their A rounds? we're only 3 weeks into a month of deals in the U.S. so more to come :)
— Danielle Morrill (@DanielleMorrill) February 8, 2016
@DanielleMorrill rematch the Fred Wilson interview. Virtually none of these companies can be the 20-30 he refers to.
— Keith Rabois (@rabois) February 8, 2016
@DanielleMorrill @justinlabel No
— Keith Rabois (@rabois) February 8, 2016
@DanielleMorrill Fingers crossed! Meanwhile, shameless plug (for less than $5m for a 30-second spot): https://t.co/ZHSBjpL6ld

— Danielle Morrill (@DanielleMorrill) February 8, 2016
@DanielleMorrill yay!! Also, already looking at a bunch of the ones you listed... I like your taste 👊🏻
— Michelle Tandler (@michelletandler) February 8, 2016
@DanielleMorrill @michelletandler how 'bout your new friend Kara? I'd love - esp to dig into female founders/leaders
— Kara Weber (@karaweber) February 8, 2016
@DanielleMorrill also had @CaedenOfficial in my picks for NYC Series A/venture debt! https://t.co/Bfsb8Ukpk6 pic.twitter.com/wh4dfdFhLS

— Ryan Hoover (@rrhoover) February 8, 2016
@rrhoover @ProductHunt YES! OMG
— Danielle Morrill (@DanielleMorrill) February 8, 2016
@DanielleMorrill @rrhoover @ProductHunt Should it automatically scrape numbered lists. Or should it be based on what you select.
— Chris Cates ⭐ (@itschriscates) February 8, 2016
@itschriscates @rrhoover @ProductHunt maybe start with my numbered list, and then let me edit it?
— Danielle Morrill (@DanielleMorrill) February 8, 2016
@DanielleMorrill @rrhoover @ProductHunt I'll set a reminder to work on it this coming Tuesday. This will be a great tutorial for my students
— Chris Cates ⭐ (@itschriscates) February 8, 2016

— Danielle Morrill (@DanielleMorrill) February 8, 2016

— Doug Tarr (@tarr11) February 8, 2016
@tarr11 haha yes, they ask for it and the ROI of being on the list makes it worthwhile :)
— Danielle Morrill (@DanielleMorrill) February 8, 2016

@adityaKanitkar @Mattermark maybe I am just saving all of those for myself... but really just getting warmed up
— Danielle Morrill (@DanielleMorrill) February 8, 2016
