The flipside of all this, of course, is that founders whose startups get acquired and then smothered can go on to do some incredible things: Crowley started Foursquare, which is what Dodgeball could have been, and Evan Williams started what became Twitter.

The coffee shop is also "experimenting" with a more conventional co-working space pricing plan in which you'd pay a $250 membership fee and $500 a month for a dedicated desk. They claim to be home to 40+ telecommuters and untold numbers of digital workers passing through, like entrepreneur Daniel Odio, who said of the place, "It's pretty hoppin' in here and great to see another startup-friendly...

If your startup is great enough to get a term sheet from angel investors or a venture capitalist, the next step for the investor is to complete the dreaded due diligence process.

My reaction went from a knowing smile to mild irritation and, finally, to downright anger. Anger, not at him, but at myself. Anger at the fact that this kind of radical and broad based self-deprecation (and by "self" I mean all of us) was...

A lot of people have asked me how to create a product focused culture and our product process at Skillshare. I’m happy to share but keep in mind that it’s different for each team. Whenever I work with new teams, I start by creating a custom process based on a product philosophy, and tweak/iterate over time. It’s never perfect, but it’s always improving, thus allowing us to move faster and...
