Doing things backwards

In our pursuit for a startup we have done everything completely backwards. We have no idea yet we are trying to flaunt we have something. We are trying to make money when we don’t even know the first thing about it.

When we created this blog, our objective was to get noticed in the blogosphere and to make an impression as teens trying to get the world to hear us. But one of the most important things we lacked was credibility. It was our major fault and we tried to ignore it but that didn’t help. Then we tried to force an idea out of ourselves and that didn’t work either. So what is left?

I like what Loic Le Meur (yes a frenchie) said on a TechCrunch article:

“Don’t wait for a revolutionary idea. It will never happen. Just focus on a simple, exciting, empty space and execute as fast as possible”

I think we are going to take the traditional approach and start small. We have got to cover the fundamentals and gain experience before we do anything else.

The idea behind this blog came out of a whim. Now it is 3 months later and our results of this experiment aren’t clear yet. Heck we aren’t even sure if we have many readers out there. Don’t get us wrong, we aren’t down on ourselves but we want to learn from our mistakes.

Like I said before, we are currently participating in the GHOP and who knows, maybe we might try out one of our previous ideas (here’s hoping none of them are taken).
