How did you come up with the idea? Also, according to http://danielbru.com/2010/05/03/announcing-my-next-venture/ you made Daring Fireball...nice.
Thanks! Just to be clear, Daniel was a partner, he's now just an advisor. I'm not Daniel :) My dad basically told me that I should be making some passive income, and a few days previous my friend dropped and cracked my iPad (without a case). Thus, iPCF was born! Hah!

Then, once you've done that, you should look at the list and think about what you LIKE to do, and what you DON'T LIKE to do.
Prepare a final list which is composed of a cross section of what you are/aren't good at doing, and what you do/don't like to do.
