for W3c validation

Holy crap, when building a tech startup like Oh Hey World, there is a seemingly endless stream of items on my to-do list. Among the dozens of items on my mind right now:
- Terms of Use document
- Incorporation – C Corp in Delaware
- Finding a technical co-founder/CTO
- Recruiting the right developers
- Finding & recruiting the right advisors
- Privacy policy
- Who are the right investors I should be speaking to?
- What’s the right strategy to opening up the very small beta to the world?
- Ensuring I’m focusing my time on the right thing
- User experience – not letting a single subpar user scenario slip through the cracks
- Which potential business partners should I reach out to pre launch?
- Am I capturing all the feedback I’m gathering from conversations I’m having?
- Is the 1st version of the MVP (minimal viable product) focused on the right use case?
- Determining the best way to allocate shares to early team members
- NDA & IP agreements
- Making sure I don’t run out of money. While it’s considerably cheaper than it used to be to build a technology company, it’s still not cheap. If you are starting your own startup and self funding like I am, and see the flood gates of your bank account opening the way I do right now, you’re not alone.
Bottom line: There’s lots to do
Get going. Time is money. Do something.
