I worked with Dinesh, my co-founder in RailsFactory, on two occassions and I used to be his boss.
I knew his technical skills, but he was more than that, a great guy and a family friend.
Though there were over 20 developers whom I managed, but he was the chosen one :)
only after a 2 year period, we went on to start our company.
my suggestion, get someone whom you dont mind meeting at anytime of the day, any place in the world, with whom you share many things in common.
startups are stressful, dont get someone who has financial and personal problems( more than you).someone who can commit minimum one year of his/her life for the Idea and you
