The answer depends on if you know what you want to do. If there's an idea you're passionate about, go ahead and build it. If you don't have an idea or need help building it (design, programming, business) - go work for a funded startup that

I suddenly realized that everything I wrote would be inside the program's code, and that nothing more would. Uhh... what does this mean?

They did say South Park and I believe that and SoMA have most of the startup action, don't they?

One 30" FTW with two displays you have to twist your neck more, also, if you're using video out from a laptop, it's easier to deal with one display.

Gowanus would be cool, except it's a bit far out of Manhattan, which is why DUMBO works. DUMBO is a desert in terms of food choices though. (Not that South Park is any better), but DUMBO is also expensive to live in. I say put all the start

There's definitely room for innovation in the space. A lot of Geo data on the web right now is unclean and there's not a lot of people other than Google and Yahoo and MapQuest providing API's to it. Also, Twitter recently acquired geoapi wh

Yes, there is. Recruiting works the same as everywhere else, personal networks, user groups, campus recruiting or a wide variety of technical recruiters. The bigger question is, are you closer to your eventual customers? How are you making

Just posted a comment about this on Fred's blog too, but I'm wondering if you guys have any suggestions on finding and meeting good mentors? Is it just meeting people you respect at networking events? Getting introduced? Or writing to them

The thing with Twitter is, that they don't really want to kill their app ecosystem, but really just want to keep growing because of their app ecosystem, they only want to be the transport layer so it is highly unlikely that they would come

Your point being? I was responding to Zed's point that you need to be in banking, marketing, government or publishing if you want to do a startup in NYC. It is obvious that the valley's startup scene is bigger, what I'm saying is that

What do you want to do? You can definitely go to one of the bigger companies - which is a great way to network till your next startup idea hits, and there's also the EIR gig that's been talked about here a little bit slightly better than be

It is most likely that Zed didn't work with some of the most interesting startups in New York because he was too busy stroking his own ego and thinking he was too good for them. ;-) (this is mostly a joke, Zed is a great guy but he loves pi

This is only partially true. a 1br in SoMA is the same rent as a 1br in most of Manhattan, but you possibly get lesser space in Manhattan, so then you move out to brooklyn if you want more space. Also, DUMBO in Brooklyn is fairly easily acc
