Robert Scoble has written a nice piece about the coming of age of Zooomr, an as-yet unfunded startup run by a single 20-year old. The site has been down due to upgrade woes primarily because they only have one set of servers, and Scoble points out that spending their first cash on insuring smooth upgrades would go a long way toward exuding professionalism. If graduate school has taught me anything, its just that: expect the unexpected, and spend the majority of your available resources preparing for smooth transitions. The rest is just writing code, and that’s easy.
