Gotta say that Startup School 2012 had some really great talks. I had the chance to attend in person and it exceeded my expectation. The speakers shared some great insights and stories about their startups and each one gave a different perspective.
My favorite speaker probably was Joel Spolsky (and his slow, organic growth vs land-grab talk).
I love how Joel used Fog Creek to fund StackExchange's development and now Trello, which both seem to be land-grab businesses. It's almost like Fog Creek is it's own startup incubator now. Maybe a new model of funding/startups?
- zmitri 14y agoFor those who weren't there, Trello was funded by Fog Creek employees investing their bonuses into developing the product. I thought his slides also added a lot. Very straight forward and clear -- he almost didn't need to speak.
