In the middle of that post Seth talks about industries, specifically:
---------------------------------------------------
Most industries innovate from both ends:
* The outsiders go first because they have nothing to lose.
* The winners go next because they can afford to and they want to stay winners.
* It's the mediocre middle that sits and waits and watches.
---------------------------------------------------
I guess to some extent you can draw the same co-relations with startups:
1. People who believe that they have nothing to lose go first -- recent college grads, etc.
2. These would be the serial entrepreneur's
3. Everyone else
- ALee 19y agoI would add that the (2) is probably the companies like Google, Yahoo and others who want to stay on top of their market share.
