Reminds me of one of the quotes in my hostel dorm:

Another day passed and you still haven’t done anything!

Google understands a few other things most Web companies still don’t. The most important is that you should put users before advertisers, even though the advertisers are paying and users aren’t. One of my favorite bumper stickers reads “if the people lead, the leaders will follow.” Paraphrased for the Web, this becomes “get all the users, and the advertisers will follow.” More generally, design your product to please users first, and then think about how to make money from it. If you don’t put users first, you leave a gap for competitors who do.

– Paul Graham

I have been reading Paul Graham a lot these days. I hate myself for not reading it earlier. There is ages of experience wrapped up in all his essays. If you are a startup guy, its a must read for you.

There is always so much to do in a startup that people won’t be too picky about your paper qualifications, if you can solve problems for them without screwing up.

– Paul Graham

My startup BitRhymes is looking for such talented guys.

“We act as though comfort and luxury were the chief requirements of life, when all that we need to make us happy is something to be enthusiastic about.”

– Albert Einstein

“The trouble with normal is it always gets worse.”

So now its Good vs (Normal, Bad and Worse). God is playing foul.

“Talent does what it can; genius does what it must.”

- Robert Bulwer-Lytton

“The details are not the details. They make the design.”

-Charles Eames
