Video: Rails creator DHH interview by Jason Calacanis on This Week in Startups

By Vasudev Ram

Saw this video via a Disqus comment:

Video: Rails creator DHH interviewed by Jason Calacanis on This Week in Startups

Started watching, seems interesting. Might want to skip some of the start where a show viewer calls in, to get to the main story.

At some part it is like the interviewee is interviewing the interviewer. Video also embedded below.

Micropreneur.com and related topics

By Vasudev Ram

This post is about the concept of "micropreneurs" (something similar to micro-ISVs) and related topics.

I had seen this post on Andy Brice's blog Successful Software some weeks ago. Thought it was of interest:


Start Small, Stay Small - A Developer's Guide to launching a startup

In the post, Andy talks about Rob Walling, who is a micropreneur and also one of the people behind the site . Andy's post also has links to a blog, a podcast and the micropreneur academy site, all by Rob Walling.

The main concept of the term "micropreneur" is, to create a startup or small business, but not to grow it (much) larger over time; i.e., to remain at the size that can be handled by one person, the founder (possibly with the leverage of outsourcing some of your tasks). This is a concept that may interest some people, since not everyone necessarily wants their startup to keep getting bigger and bigger.
