:) Thanks TomOfTTB
I've read that book, and I agree that it's not so clear, as in the other comment.
No excuses...but take a month of time, and what you can build in that time span, alone. There is two of us, but I am the only developer/designer :) Would I spend another month hiding it while tweaking. No.
We need to go bravely public as soon as possible and change stuff on the fly.
This is so true, that revealing ideas is so difficult. I see it everyday, yet people do this within companies too. It's a million dollar idea. Well, unless you do something about it, its worth nada. And Aleveo aims at those ideas that you see around you and have no intentions on acting upon. How many times a day we say hmm, that can be done this way. Do we act on it... rarely.
With students it's even more different. When they graduate, they have nothing in their CVs. At least, they can have their ideas. And thats is what we want to show to the world.
Can't find the article now, but I think it was either Seth Godin or on Signal vs. Noise on value of ideas. Basically, they set it straight forward:
bad idea -$1
poor idea $0
good idea $1
great idea $10
no execution 0
poor execution 1000
good execution 100.000
outstanding execution 1.000.000
great idea with some good execution might be worth $10 x 100.000, but without execution it's just a 0. Moreover, no one ever pursues other's ideas, as they say, everyone thinks your idea is stupid except you.
Thanks for the input, highly appreciated.
