Ya, agreed. The second one was nowhere near as good as the first. Also have been wondering when new courses will come out. I finished the first two in two days (one each day) and was disappointed there weren't any more. It's been about a month since I last used it and there haven't been any new courses added.

Just curious if Dropbox had a MVP? If so, what was it? Was it ready and launched by Demo Day? Was it a purely free model, or were they already going with the freemium model at launch?

Just read through the whole interview. Wow. Had no idea he did all that. That is just amazing.

Make one or two of them co-founders. Until you see traction, you have no choice but to keep the team extremely small and bootstrap like crazy.

What I do is give my brother my password for Steam and not keep a copy for myself. When I am busy, I just log out of Steam and I can't play any games until I ask my brother for the password.

Cut your costs down to just rent plus servers. Keep only the technical people plus yourself. Have everyone work for free in exchange for equity until you see traction. The ones that believe in the company and the idea enough will do it.

Ya, I read about that and I really, really, really respect him for that.

kaffeinecoma - Google "The Woz Plan" for more.

Thanks for the clarification. So it has to be some sort of verbally transmitted code (ie. a phrase) since it's used over the radio? That pretty much takes out almost all the guesses posted here so far.

I hope I never have to smell either (dead mouse or dead human). =/

Someone posted on the original article that "You cannot recall smells..." That is one possibility. Pandarus could give Manelaus a bottle of a very specific perfume that Pandarus was familiar with. If Pandarus smelled the perfume in the future, he would know it was Manelaus. But if captured, he would not be able to remember the perfume's smell -- at least not in a specific enough way to reproduce it.
