New Category => startup
Time to resurface out of stealth mode for a bit. Things are moving fast with the startup I'm involved with. I've decided to add a new category for startup entries since this might be the bulk of future blogging.
It's interesting to watch a serial entrepeneur work up close. Someone who's already been through this a bunch of times, going from just an idea, then to hundreds of employees, finally to exit. I've tried starting companies previously with a bunch of pure techies, as well as one with a bizdev type straight from B-school, but this one is different. It's like watching a PGA Tour player compared to a bunch of amateurs. Extremely educational.
OK, back to the job at hand. In light of my previous Ocean's Eleven entry, this quote is very relevant:
Rusty: You'd need at least a dozen guys doing a combination of jobs.
Danny: What do you think?
Rusty: Off the top of my head, I'd say you're looking at a Boesky, a Jim Brown, a Miss Daisy, two Jethros, and a Leon Spinks, not to mention the biggest Ella Fitzgerald ever.
Cool. OK, we've got a Codd and Gouraud. I don't know what the hell I am, though. Hmm..what's next...got it.
Anyone know any graphic artist/web design types in the Bay Area looking for a full-time or part-time gig?
