I did want to open source it, but the problem is all of our passwords and keys for amazon and everything are in the code. Is there a way to get around that?

We were a middle-man to the artists. We had to setup so when a fan bought their music all of the money went directly to us, and then we paid out the artist. That is where we went wrong. You need to use "recipient tokens" so the money is spl

I like where this discussion has gone. I feel like the vast majority of us are stating that we didn't understand our market well enough and didn't get validation early enough. Our product relied heavily on the technology behind (it needed t

I think this is a fuckin' great idea! I started out as a front-end developer and I would get discouraged when I couldn't see my work deployed in action. Wish this was around a few years ago!

Good call. My startup failed because our team (who worked in the music industry, but were not musicians) assumed we knew our audience (who were musicians) and made our development decisions based off that assumption. If we put a "minimal v

I have always been fascinated in affecting the masses in a positive way. From there it took years to mold the concept before a small team and I took the plunge. A year later, we realized it didn't affect the masses in the way we would have

I've worked at a startup in Santa Barbara CA, and one in the Bay Area. The reason I push to the Bay is for energy purposes. The inspiration of the startup community really boosted everyones energy up and pumped us up to work harder! It easi

I personally think it is a great idea. The hardest part is making the email look genuine and not like a mass email. We used this tactic at my last startup and quickly found out that our assumptions about our audience were very false, and we

Along with your resume, I think the most important piece is going to be your cover letter. That is where you can explain your "developer story". You can explain why your resume isn't traditional "business", and portray yourself as an entrep

I attended the Launch conference in San Francisco this year and specifically asked many of the startups demoing their software what they wrote in. The majority of them were written in RoR. Also, if you are just starting out with programming
