...and faster. Great breakdown of the experience. Thanks Royce.

Just out of interest, how are you compensated for this? Do you get paid a salary by Techstars, or do you get equity in the companies you help, or something else?

Hey simonw, author here. Thanks for reading. TechStars Boulder currently pays $6,000 on a three-month contract. It's certainly not financially attractive, but it's a good experience if you (a) want to get into Techstars someday or (b) Want a job with a promising startup and/or (c) interested in making relationships with smart, well-connected folks.

What is that header transition called? Where the title fades away... I like it and would like to use it.

It was a little weird for me on clicking the back button. I wasn't at the top, and the transition happened in the middle of the page.
