Has anyone any opinions on this? I'm curious to see what the community has to say.

Also, does anyone have any good links that offer some form of angel investments (preferably not kickstarter)

Really depends what type of investment you need.

If your looking for 100k - chances are an Angel investor wont be interested
Generally speaking Angel investors look for a larger slice of the company.

Personally I would think of angel investor as a last resort - exhausting all other avenue's first. Friends, Family, credit Union, bank etc

I'm going to agree with Murphy here. Basically if you're looking for capital, the two questions are 1) how much of it do you need, and 2) how much are you willing to pay for it down the road? A lot depends on what type of business you have, but outside investors always want a piece of the pie, otherwise why would they fund your business? If you can get the money any other way, do.
