Just curious, given the increasing media attention paid to startups.

I'm on my 3rd startup of my own, participated in 3 others.
How did the other 3 go? What were they?

And just out of curiosity, how old are you?

On my first one, and finding an iPhone dev is a nightmare!
Planning my third one, if I count the consulting that I started after failure of first one.

The lesson I learnt was to have a partner who watches your blind side and whose blind side you are willing to watch. Such a partner is worth every penny but very difficult to find.

Looking to be an early employee. Looking to do remote work (I'm in London)

HTML5, Javascript, jQuery mobile ... mobile web apps are my specialty :)

Currently doing consulting work, for a very large search engine company, you probably have used 50 times already today ;)

all of the above?
