@ChrisLaBossiere 👊🏼

Whoa! @avclark's new show about podcasting is out: "Which Is Better: In-Person or Skype Interviews?" https://overcast.fm/+EibbigVlI

@nathanallotey @letsworkshop yikes! I wonder if it’s a @buffer thing?

Does this link give you a warning?
http://buildandlaunch.net/26/

@Jus10McGill sweet. That's what I'm thinking. ;)

@sunspotwendy AWESOME Wendy! Thanks so much for the encouragement. 👊

Me: "What's the term for: 'we're break-even but we aren't paying the founder?‘"

@nathanbarry: “Umm, a startup?”

@heykennarae thanks!

@mannaxc thanks! 👊

12 gurus talk about how they set their rates: http://buff.ly/1KRLUXL (via @kenwestgaard)

The title of this @StrikerMetal bonus track is amazing.

@iChris @suenns HOT DAMN! Congrats you two!

@DylanFeltus thanks!

Yesterday I recorded a new episode of @buildlaunchpod:

http://buff.ly/1AJByTz

"How do you validate a product idea?"

@mikeeshattuck sure!

@CRFunkhouser thanks for sharing it Colin! 👊

RT @buildlaunchpod: Holy bananas! It's a new episode:

http://buff.ly/1H4WgF6

I talk about "product validation."

@tonytphd thanks Tony!

👊

@joestump awwww yeaaaah!

👊

@sh god yes.

@iwearyourshirt YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Whoa. I can’t believe this podcasting bundle from @avclark is still so cheap:

http://podcastbundle.com/

Good time to grab it!

@davehopkins25 for the “raw talking to my family” I’m just using Voice Memo on iPhone.

@sidazhang it really depends. I’ve seen some of mine bring in 10,000 visitors.

"I was the top hunt on Product Hunt. My friend thought I'd make $10-$20k. I actually made $450."

http://buff.ly/1EYZ4Bw

@_architexture_ yup. Same here.

@alfred_lua yup! It was so nice.

Found users who will pay for your product? That's just Step 1. Here's the real test: can you economically acquire new customers every month?

Whoa! Huge news from @gumroad: you can now create new products with your existing files. I've been waiting for this!

@mastermaq here's the data I REALLY want to see from the #abvote: did sales of Orange Crush go up?

@JoshDoody WHOA!

@mastermaq btw - thanks for all your work on the election results page! There were a bunch of us in BC following it! 👍

My latest interview with @nathanbarry is good. If you're building a SaaS, have a listen! https://overcast.fm/+JlFRediE

@daverodenbaugh @brennandunn @rsobers @mbuckbee "digital dad" just doesn't have the same appeal, does it? 😉

@kylefox I think this orange Tesla is more of her thing.

@christiannaths hahaha. Love it. 👊

@iamclovin thanks! 👊

@timregnier who's winning?

@ListerAbby not looking, I just think their pricing model is interesting.

@mastermaq THIS IS A PC CONSPIRACY!!!

Tired and busy

@sambreed what's crazy to me is they're riding big boards now! 8"+

@kylefox President's Choice. Good bet: no fee banking (and delicious cookies) FTW!

@sambreed I love stuff like this: https://instagram.com/p/2UWwoDO-TU/

@mastermaq is this down? http://2015.abvote.ca/results

@nathanpalmer for startups I'm talking to, support software is their second biggest expense (after salaries).

@sidazhang per user using the software (“per support agent”)

@daverodenbaugh those are prices for Desk and Uservoice.

@nathanpalmer not just bootstrappers! I've talked to a number of mature SaaS owners who feel it's way too expensive.

@mattalexand how many seats do you folks have?

Wowser. I realize email parsing is challenging, but customer support software seems crazy expensive per user:

@hotdogsladies @TeeVeeNet @moze @gte amazing episode. 👊

@nathanbarry sweet!

(Was hoping it would say: “Narrated by Alec Baldwin” 😜)

@wesbos Fixed!

@wesbos so sorry about that. The UI isn’t clear at all: if you click the down-arrow you’ll see the sections.

@wesbos Build Your Audience? You should be able to see a lot more than that! I’ll take a look.

@BattleBeast when are you coming to Canada?

@davehopkins25 thanks Dave!

You’ve been listening to @buildlaunchpod ?

@ZingerDesign whoa! Congrats!

@tylertringas thanks! Glad you enjoyed it.

@j_greig @SingleFounder also just posted this to Product Hunt!

http://www.producthunt.com/posts/single-founder-handbook

@j_greig @kaisdavis hahaha. @SingleFounder used a service called Thunderclap.

My buddy @singlefounder just released a step-by-step guide to help bootstrap your own software business: http://thndr.it/1GeeZO6

I must be feeling nostalgic today. Just caught myself singing this Sesame Street classic:

@asharfin here's the episode I just published: http://productpeople.tv/2015/05/04/ep72-nathan-barry-saas/

@andygmccabe nice! 👊🏼

@iwearyourshirt does WB realize how much direct traffic that site still gets? You'd think they'd redirect it or something...

@iwearyourshirt Love your Twitter bio. BTW: is http://spacejam.com down, or does it just not render on mobile?

New episode of @productpeopletv with @nathanbarry:
http://productpeople.tv/2015/05/04/ep72-nathan-barry-saas/

"SaaS is the hardest thing I've done"

@Shpigford @kaequan so… just a normal Monday?

I miss autoexec.bat

@amsoell yes!

Think about this: because of Minecraft, the first programming language many of today's kids will learn is JAVA.

@gahokas ah yes - the SX vs DX. ;) I remember that too!

@jonbuda the 486 was your first machine?

Baller.

@joshowens whoa! That's a supreme machine.

The 486 and CD-ROM went hand in hand.

@Beryllium9 I had a Tandy 1000!

You're lucky you got to jump to the 486. ;)

Who else had a 386 growing up?

For me that computer was pivotal: it was the first machine we owned with a modem.

@dchymko thanks

@stewarttownsend awww yeah! 👊

@NicheDiver thanks! 👊

@thejonotron 😝 yes!

@Shpigford my theory is that each kid you have adds 3.5 years to your life. 😳

@jdjeffers @Shpigford ❤️ the idea of UnixBeardJam.

@natekontny nope! I grabbed that quote from there. ;)
