Thanks. Yes that was the goal...just built something we wanted to use.

It doesn't. I need to upload the new version that has the proper permissions there. Good question.

Like others said, use odesk or elance to grab initial clients, then move them over to something like voomly for subscription-based payments to support them via email, etc.

http://www.voomly.com is being built for this.

From what I understand the "46" is a shout-out to their supplier, because it is the product number of the wood staves used in the finishing process....

1:30 is neither too early nor too late.

This is great

I don't know....a "makers mark single barrel" would have had pretty high standards and a really "me too" feel.

I'll stick by my argument that self-imposed restrictions can really help people get innovative and avoid the me-too traps of entrepreneurship.

I would agree with this. High standards result in great products, but not necessarily innovative products.

Restrictions can and do lead to restrictions. Think of all the limited resources in a computer 20 years ago and all the tricks played with memory and registers and bit-shifting and such to push the limits of what the hardware could do.

Fail fast was just a side benefit. The point I was trying to make was to force yourself into creative and innovative solutions.

No, and I think your point was valid. I wasn't taking issue with your article, but I always twitch a little bit when I see someone saying how great it is to "fail fast".

That's me in a nutshell....no wait, this is me in a nutshell: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CQ3UHYLTcmM
