For a marketing brochure I sought feedback from two professional writers and from my wife. The best advice of the three was my wife's. Moms are the main customer, but one of the professional writers is a mom too.<p>If you're racing with competitors to get the attention of people who live their lives on the web, havin...

The sad thing is that web2.0 is a sales business too, rather than a technology business.

a good point, I think it can work both ways, but my wife is a great sounding board and brings a unique / non techie point of view to the discussion which is extremely valuable.

This sounded like a fun way to get your company name out there. You have to make an infomercial and then a few judges give you some feedback on your delivery. If you're the best then they give you free advertisement on their site for a month.

Engineering can be a lifelong profession, but the longer you spend trying to be a good engineer the more likely you are to work for someone who just Doesn't Get It. Once a company gets to be a certain size, especially if the people in charge aren't technically skilled, politics and perception trumps physical laws; an ...

I'm still not sure this license works well enough for me to use any GPL-licensed components. I created and sold some software several years ago that communicated with MySQL, and those guys wanted me to open source due to their use of GPL. Even though my code was completely independent and my own, they still wanted it...

The reason to start a startup when you're young and single is because you have no commitments. Once you have kids, you can't afford to take that kind of chance with your life because you're also responsible for their lives. But a spouse/significant other who's genuinely supportive is like a partner in the company who...

All they need to do now is get past the hurdle of locality. Okcupid and plentyoffish haven't even done that really, outside of california or really condensed areas. I'd be using it right now if it had more women in Vegas. Once that milestone is gone, amazing growth can begin. <p>Mr. Forman seemed like a nice guy whe...

great stats on how a massively popular startup actually can earn money. While they may not have broken even yet, $9.34 million in 2006 is nothing to scoff at.

I think a lot of this stuff applies to starting anything new. I thought about church planters who work for non monetary rewards. Same stuff applies to pioneers in any endeavor.

The problem with motivation for an undergrad is when you realize that everything doesn't need to be the way it is now. Let me clarify. Most of us have been raised our whole lives with the mantra, "You have to go to college to succeed." I know that my parents didn't go to college, and they were always saying, "You do...

They said they're a yCombinator-funded startup, but they also said they're based out of New York. Does YC now have startups in other cities, or did they move to New York after the SFP/WFP program?

Do you have cofounders that can move, and you could visit alternate weeks or every weekend? If you have no cofounders AND you cannot move, that's two strikes.
