They're weekly, so I think I'll watch them and post them if they're good enough to discuss. As of this one, most of the lessons I've heard in some other way before, but it is a nice introduction to startups. To add to your notes, I found it interesting when he said that ideas need to be good but don't have to sound good: that startups can just as well be the cross between ideas that don't really sound good but in fact are really good. Also, when it comes to markets, get to know your market. It's super important to shape your goal and get it where it's needed and loved. In two weeks Paul Graham will talk about how to get ideas - I'm looking forward to that. Part of me really wants to start my own company or work on a startup, even though it seems hard as hell. I like challenges.
Not in my notes, but something that struck home: It is better to create something that is loved by a few than something that is liked by many. Part of me really wants to start my own company or work on a startup, even though it seems hard as hell. I like challenges.
-Absolutely! Projects are where it's at. Creating something for people to use, interact with etc is so fulfilling imo. Good luck veen, you're a talented mo-fo, I have no doubt you'll be successful.
