When the new equity crowdfunding rules go into effect, I was thinking a more interesting model could involve equity. Every person in a "startup cooperative" could own a piece of ev…

I don't think it has to be open-source... you just need to release things. And what's a great motivator for releasing things when working alone? It's having other people expect you…

When I went to tech meetups I met a couple mentors that had office hours... the first thing they started talking about was how much money they helped startups raise. They acted as …

This is why I don't like posting my product ideas publicly for anyone who searches keywords. If I give away all the details of my implementation, I could be helping someone else wh…

You've described the Managers at my part-time job exactly. I spend 4 hours shoveling snow in near sub-zero temperatures and oops I missed a spot by the side of the dumpster... who …

I remember that website. In college my friend and I called it the Pet Rock of the internet. Still can't believe that idea made $1 million. btw - I'm making a club for people to dis…

As Paul Graham says Startup = Growth. If you think your project has a large enough market and can acquire users exponentially then it could be a startup. On the other hand if you n…

I'm way too broke for a co-working space. The plan is to initially use Google Hangouts because the cost is $0 and there's no time wasted travelling to a physical location. If more …

I think what most developers need is mentors, direction and a community... that's why we'd do almost anything to get into an accelerator. We think "if 50% stake for $100k is the be…
