I've survived my third startup launch. It seems to have less and less awe with each iteration. But the bubbly's still good, and I like watching the principles and/or newbies get charged. This time around, it was interesting to see how much better versed the staff and third parties like ISP's and vendors were in the whole thing.

rand()m quote

Immature poets imitate mature poets steal bad poets deface what they take and good poets make it into something better or at least something different. The good poet welds his theft into a whole of feeling which is unique utterly different than that from which it is torn the bad poet throws it into something which has no cohesion. A good poet will usually borrow from authors remote in time or alien in language or diverse in interest.

—T.S. Eliot
