It was built for like two people, not 2 million.""You just should create something closed, invite friends, network, and potential investors to test before launching it to everybody.""Some of these folks enjoyed the camaraderie and being a part of something big.""It's one of those things that's really dangerous to outsource because if you get it wrong, it's hard to recover.""You can tell if the company has a good product team by the products they put out."
