Co-founder wanted

[mbrubeck]

I want to start my own software company whenever I finish at Kiha, whether it succeeds and I'm rich, fails and I'm laid off, or just gets big and I get bored.*
Specifically, I want to work on a very small and focused project with one or two partners

That sounds exactly like what my husband is planning to do in roughly the same time period. He'd be interested. I guess I should double check with him...

Yes, he's definitely interested.

If it's InfoVis, maybe. :)

Heh. I don't yet have any visualization-related business ideas, but if you know any good problems we could make money by solving, I'd be happy to work on them with you.

:) I'm not worried. I'd like to do something similar myself as well.

You can add me to the interested list.

That does sound like fun. Were you planning to do it in seattle? Have you read Paul Graham's essays about startups?

[mbrubeck]

I'll be in Seattle, and working from home if I do the bootstrapping thing as planned. (One reason I want to start a business is to be able to work from home full-time.) Co-founders in Seattle would be easier to meet up with, and I have a home office where we could work side-by-side. But it's fairly likely that we'd be working remotely most of the time anyways, so location is not necessarily an obstacle.

Yeah, I've read all of Paul Graham's stuff. I also read Hacker News semi-regularly.

Add me as curious.

I definitely would like to do something of the sort at some point, although things are quite fluxy right now.
