Hey Matt, Good to meet you as well.

Some perspective: I'm not a coder, yet I am starting a web business. I previously founded and grew a non-tech startup to 2 million in revenue in our first 18 months. I fucked it up and made a horrible exit with very little cash.

Currently, I'm on step 5 of the blog post, with a new raise working both a full-time job and a startup company.

I do worry about market risk, so I'm researching several customers for the technology besides the obvious B2C. My biggest concern is a roadblock with google also focusing on the concept for ShelfMade. http://www.techcrunch.com/2007/11/19/google-magazine/

Not to start a fight, but I will be kicking your ass in fantasy football next year. And if ShelfMade has revenue or funding, we'll be doing it on Yahoo fantasy sports, agreed?




Ha, sorry to hear about the bad exit. And if we qualify the revenue with some dollar figure then I'll even agree to the yahoo thing.


"...I will be kicking your ass in fantasy football..."

The nerdosterone is getting a little heavy here.
