Are you looking for a co-founder for an idea you're already working on or open to joining an idea? Its understandable that everyone seems to be attached to their own ideas, but it sounds like the attachment to the idea might actually be the hardest part of partnering up with someone.

In my specific case, I have a project I'm already working on, and looking for a co-founder to advance that. That's not to say I couldn't be swayed to work on something else if somebody came along with a compelling enough vision, but I'm not really looking for a new idea.

  I like what I do already, but I'd work with you if I didn't. The reasons: - comment about Rob Pike - kid 606 album cover as icon - expressed rational contempt for e4 - from NC ... [(99, svn), (23, emacs), (17, ant)] should be the answer to an interview question... Best of luck with your project.

    Kid 606? Don't know them... Are you a North Carolinian as well? If so, shoot me an email; maybe we can meet up sometime.

      Ah, my fault - I have a remix of Shout at the Doner[1] that seems to have re-re-purposed the Motley Crue cover[2], which I was previously unfamiliar with. Unfortunately I am just a former North Carolinian living in Houston. ---- [1] http://www.pandora.com/music/album/kid606/shout+at+doner http://www.pandora.com/music/album/kid606/shout+at+doner [2] http://a0.twimg.com/profile_images/52458175/thm_motley_crue_devil_stick.jpg http://a0.twimg.com/profile_images/52458175/thm_motley_crue_...

  Just curious for future reference, but does the age of the non-technical co-founder matter to you?

    does the age of the non-technical co-founder matter to you? Not particularly, no. I'd love to connect with somebody with some real industry experience, which an 18 year old (for example) probably wouldn't have, but - in general - age is pretty irrelevant to me. So are degrees, skin color, sex, ethnicity, religion, vi or emacs usage, and most other criteria that don't have anything to do with getting things done. :-)

  How/where do you currently look for your ideal business co-founder?
