Startups.com is very similar to StackExchange sites in terms of style. Is it part of the family?

Seems like this isn't off-topic until after you already know the answer. Voting to reopen. –  Pops Oct 17 '10 at 19:48
Also answers.onstartups.com is an SE 2.0 site so that's on topic. –  ChrisF Oct 17 '10 at 20:41

It's a StackExchange 1.0 site. Although StackExchange is similar to StackOverflow, and based upon it, they are two separate entities, and SE questions should be asked at Meta SE.

No, it's not one of the official sites (i.e. not part of the StackOverflow trilogy - now quadrology). It is however based on the StackExchange platform, designed by Fog Creek Software, the creators of SO (i.e. Jeff, Joel, and co.).

I believe it's a site using the stackoverflow engine, though not affiliated with stackoverflow itself as the meta/SU/SF/SO siblings are.
