Find out what you hate about their service, and make sure it is improved in yours. 37Signals' book had something about this, its the chapter on "Have an Enemey, pick a fight" - http://gettingreal.37signals.com/ch02_Have_an_Enemy.php

Single founder here. But I'll admit it: I can use as much support as I can get sometimes. I've been thinking of starting a "braintrust" of solo entrepreneurs so that we can pursue our respective passions but also reap some of the benefits o

They're going to learn the hard way that there is no such thing as a "Beta" version for a hardware product, atleast not in the US.

I hate to break this to all of you, but all thats happening here is the natural evolutionary process of a small company growing in size. I think 37Signals has shared a lot of concepts/opinions in the past that are relatively novel and great

Right, and the question remains, are they after the right goal? I think the three I outlined above should be the real goals of a social network -- getting me in touch with the people that I don't know but should know.

I think social networks should be solving 3 of my searches: 1) who should I start a company with? 2) who should I hang out with? 3) who should I make babies with? Right now, they pretty much are failing at all of the above.

Sure, if Sales is your only goal. I'm not talking about being a perfectionist, but I'm talking about putting out the best product that you damn well can. Why aim for mediocre?

They didn't cover any tools that help you communicate/collaborate on stuff beyond the logistics (e.g. project management, todos, milestones, etc). What about discussions about roadmap, pricing strategy, marketing?

Its not the idea of the product that counts, its what your vision is for how you want to solve the problem in your own unique way. If you're tapping into a real market, there will be tons of products that promise to solve the problem; you h

Write demo scripts in Selenium and have it "play" the demo for the user on the actual app using a demo account. Hm....quit tempting me!

Is it just me or is the video/tour a very tedious thing to do... I've been putting it off myself for my site.

Here is probably how I'd break it down (based on what I've seen my friends in the finance industry do): Analyst = excel grunt work VP = budget grunt work Senior VP = investment work

#3 seems to assume that the end-goal of every startup is to get funded by a VC, and that just doesn't jive with me. #2 I'm not sure if San Fran even hosts that many startup conferences. More importantly, the whole model for conferences is

Thats probably because there are so many NY startups working on a Twitter or Facebook extension instead of a real core idea that can stand on its own.

What is startup culture? Free sodas? Working 90-hour weeks and thinking you're awesome? I guess I never really understood what people refer to as startup culture and more importantly how it relates to geography, and I really want to know.

Yeah, thats what I'm thinking too. I think its so great, society as a whole will fare better with these people swinging for the fences, instead of being in a soulless job.

I wonder how much of this has to do with the financial collapse. There is no denying that the financial firms sucked up a ton of great talent during their boom years. Are those people (and the potentials) now turning to startups now that th

There is a small chance that Arrington thought he could screw them over, but they turned out to be way tougher than some 'random offshore company'

He seems to be evasive about the 'investors' question too! Why is that so secretive?
