I didn't even realize you could get down-voted on here ha. Well, sorry for my comment, I guess?

I love my state...

This is probably the wisest parsing of the correct situation. If you want to work with your friend or another person and all they have is an idea, then include them and help them learn new things along the way.

It seems to me the skill-set you start with at the beginning of a startup will be significantly smaller and narrower than what you have at the end of a startup.

I think many people over look the value of the network you get via the VC. Start ups look to much at the money and not at the outside benefits of getting plugged into a particular network. It is hard to believe that crowdfunding for equity is going to really enable this same network effect.

I really agree with this analysis of the OP. It is pretty interesting to notice that as you watch other programmers you are teaching look for things on Google. That filter comes probably out of more and more googling combined with more and more programming to see which posts lead to a good solution.

I don't know. I have found some of their resources really helpful (like the articles you can get from the accel.io part) but i haven't engaged with the community too much yet. They seem like great folks though, so hopefully it will grow? Dunno.

What do you do?

Hey thanks for the interest. Make sure you apply to test, if you want to check it out. We are going to start adding another round of testers really soon. Any questions off the bat?

Well, this is nice to see first thing in the morning! It's exciting to see our startup picked up in articles like this! I'm the founder of GameWisp, so let me know you guys have any questions!
