Since I haven’t seen any post I’ll just let you all know what I’m doing now. In the vein of Guy Kawasaki’s Truemers experiment, I’m trying to create a new start-up with as little cash outlay as possible. Thirty days into the experiment I’ve got whopping $59.99 worth of expenses. To cover these massive expenses, instead of taking out yet another credit card, I’m selling some of the items that have been sitting in my attic for years, starting with my comic book collection… so my geeky, acne ridden self as a boy will be my first Angel investor, to the tune of a few hundred bucks worth of X-Men comics. If I win the $100 buck Amazon gift certificate, I will use it toward storage costs on Amazon’s S3 and CPU time on EC2. If you are at all interested in watching my struggles trying to get this company off the ground, I’m writing about my experiences at http://unknownfounder.blogspot.com}
