Though I completely understand where kickstarter is coming from with their decision, I have a bit of a gripe with their choice to prevent projects from showing renderings and requiring actual photos. Correct me if I'm wrong, but the last ti

I can absolutely attest to this. Rob came to a hackathon I participated in a few months ago at the University of Miami. He did a great job and really made Twilio seem totally awesome. He was great to work with and really pushed my team to r

I like the ACM club at my school. Its the best collection of programmers at my school so Its the best chance I get to hang out with coders and similarly minded people. They also had a great hackathon a month or so ago where we got to meet s

This is fantastic. As a college student I can absolutely attest that this is one of the coolest dorms I've ever seen and completely wish my dorm was as cool as this. Might be a project for next year.

I'd just like to point out that I've come to Mike for help on numerous occasions and he has always given me fantastic and useful advice. If you need to get questions answered, Mike is the guy you want to talk to. Oh and Mike, I still haven'

Both of Steven Blank's books come pretty close. (Four Steps to the Epiphany or The Startup Owners Manual) The Lean Startup by Eric Ries is also a great place to start.

When I'm trying to come up with new or interesting ideas, I like to turn to Science Fiction. I rewatch a movie or reread a book, thinking about what technology and cool ideas they have, and see if there is anything that could be made.

As painful as it is for me to say this, the University of Miami isn't very startupy. We have a really great office on campus called the launchpad to help students start companies, but I haven't seen a single tech company come out of there.
