- staunch 17y agoDefinitely my favorite book about startups, but it really doesn't talk that much about the day to day reality of running a startup. Most of the stories are over months or years. Documentaries would be a great way to see what it's really like. Unfortunately, I don't think there are very many about well run startups. I guess Aardvark'd was a decent glimpse: http://www.projectaardvark.com/movie/ http://www.projectaardvark.com/movie/
- Frocer 17y agoStartup.com was a well-filmed documentary: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0256408/ http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0256408/ I saw it before I embark on the startup lifestyle, and the story rings true on many levels.
- staunch 17y agoYeah, but it's about a horribly run startup. It's only a lesson of what not to do.
- DTrejo 17y agoI would love to see a documentary on IMVU. Their continuous deployment strategy seems like it works very well. I'd bet they innovating in other areas too, and it'd be cool to hear more.
