I've worked with Tom, Fenn and the team for the past 4 months. While it's been an exciting period with lots of growth and interest, I like reading about the early struggles and the mud they crawled through to get this opportunity. A recent investor emailed the team explaining his decision to get on board. I was struck by one particular sentence, 'You guys just wont give up'.
I enjoy the honest writing style and acute observation on relationships. It's a breath of fresh air in contrast to the abundant startup stories about young gun-slinging silicon valley 'game changers' that built their MVP on a napkin. I understand the miracle flash stories sell, but it's good to hear about the unbeaten track.
I hope these guys become the case study for "If you can just avoid dying, you get rich".
Something that's been hinted at a lot through this series of posts are technical challenges that adioso faced that almost killed them, I'm really looking forward to hearing about those in more depth.
