    @MelBugai
    Graphic design vs experience design: you can't skin an ugly product and hit success. "You can't just it with a pretty stick" @thinknow

    #leanstartupmi @thinknow design is more than just hitting your product with the "pretty stick"

    Design is more than visual design. You can't beat your app with a pretty stick. #leanstartupmi @thinknow

    Per @byosko important to establish Lean Startup DNA early. Devs resistant to cold-calling people. Success persuades. #leanstartupmi @luxrco

    @thinknow
    "Scoble effect" - what happens when @scobleizer mentions your app at #sxswi favorably and it blows up @byosko #leanstartupmi @luxrco

    @thinknow
    Per @byosko Customer development takes longer than people realize. #leanstartupmi @luxrco

    @thinknow
    Per @byosko Year One Labs funding laddered, learning based. $10K to validate idea, $20K to build MVP $20K to scale. #leanstartupmi @luxrco

    @thinknow
    Per @byosko early assumption was Year One could take on baked teams and ideas. Teams need more support than expected. #leanstartupmi @luxrco

    @thinknow
    Per @byosko Outside Silicon Valley and NYC, students not pushed enough to start companies. #leanstartupmi @luxrco
    Thu, May 17 2012 15:38:16
  25. thinknow
    @thinknow
    Per @byosko Community not best goal of accelerator. Ecosystems don't create successful companies, founders do. #leanstartupmi @luxrco
