    This is one panel I would have really enjoyed. I hope to hear an mp3 of the panel via the SXSW podcast feed.

    Enjoy the parties.

    Does the hat go everywhere you do? What’s it’s name and where did you get it?

    My nifty little hat is from Venice. I love it! I’ve also got a Borsalino (which is more dressy).

    Thanks for the slides Ryan, couldn’t make it to this, also look forward to audio from the event.

    No problem Sam :)

    I guess I should ask them, but how on earth did Wasabe get away without paying a lawyer to at least advise on a site that deals with people’s vital personal finance info.?

    You know i would have thought that they would have detailed earnings.

    Bit of a cop out to go on a panel about figures and not give earnings.

    Kudos to you Ryan for having a backbone and getting into the spirit of the thing.

    Ryan,

    Thanks for posting your figures. It’s pretty rare that companies actually reveal their inner financial workings. It really helps out new entrepreneurs get a sense of the reality of running a web company, you know, like the fact that it costs money to maintain your service. You rock!

    I found a lot of the panels this year to be very hit and miss. Your panel was one of the best. You did an amazing job of keeping it moving forward. Thanks for the time that you clearly invested in your panel.

    Thanks Rob! Gill (my wife) did a lot of the hard work to help me prepare :)

    [...] In our Barenaked Apps Panel at SXSW, Ryan Carson advised anyone starting a web app to plan for 3 potential outcomes: success, limited success and failure. He’s right – you need to think those outcomes through and determine how you will respond to each scenario. I’d like to add something to this though. There are many people out there with big dreams that are building web apps in their spare time these days – it’s exciting. Unfortunately I think a lot of them are building with false expectations (a post on false expectations to follow soon). They think if their app does not take right off, they should pack it in. My thinking is – don’t. [...]

    [...] The week before last on our way to Austin, Texas for SXSW (checkout Mike’s panel), Michael and I had the pleasure of driving down to San Antonio to visit our managed hosting provider Rackspace. To say they were gracious hosts (excuse the pun), would be a gross understatement. We were literally treated like royalty, and from what I gather, we weren’t given any special treatment at all. I think they treat all of their customers who come for a visit as well as they treated us. [...]
