Startups for students to startups for moms, social to commerce to visual to mobile: it's all here

Today and tomorrow, 500 Startups is hosting its spring demo days, where all eyes are on 22 just-now-launching or soon-to-be-launching startups. Founded last year by super angel investor Dave McClure, 500 Startups is an incubator and accelerator that provides startups with up to $250,000 in seed funding, mentorship and access to expert business design and strategy tips.
