Thanks I have used all of my morning on this one post reading these. Should be distilled into the 25 five things not to do with your start-up.
User based growth, I would say no, the valley doesn't help grow that base is not tech focused. But word of mouth exposure, and the possibility of doing face to faces with potential experienced engineers/managers that…
It is tough acquiring a short (under 8 letter) meaningful domain name now. I am curious to know how much it cost just to buy that domain. Sometimes you can make a nonsensical name stick with enough effort/branding: see…
I agree. Creative and brilliant ideas can come at anytime, but putting in the work to get those ideas to market, or to polish them off until presentable to outsiders is where the disciple comes in. I can wake up in the…
Too much cash infused into a new or developing start-up can actually destroy the incentives needed for the start-up to be successful. Not needing to budget well and prioritize features (because we have cash to do them…

Maybe programmers nudged out of the process is a feature not a bug. People who self select out of a hard hiring process may meet not Google's criteria for certain attributes they want to see in their candidate.
The costs associated with starting an LLC vary from state to state, but usually side jobs don't rise to level of needing liability insurance. If your side project is big enough to be a lawsuit target, then it isn't a…
With new companies like crowdflower.com and cloudcrowd.com making large pushs into this space, along with ODesk.com and similar competition, I see picking the right solution as paramount to helping a small startup…
I have a 15" (1680x1050) laptop with a 24" (1920x1200) second monitor. KVM switched to my Mac as well. This setup is great. I have background tasks on the laptop screen (email, system monitoring, directories) with my…
