Getting through the Dip

Monday, February 23rd, 2009

So, right now I’m in the middle of a serious re-write of my librarian application (the piece that talks to rest of the world). It’s moving in the right direction, and it will ensure that the whole building won’t fall over on the first day, but it’s been a horrible slog.

I’ve decided to look at it this way, though: I’m building distance between me and potential competitors. I’ve been deeply involved in this enough to know that it’s something that a YCombinator kid can’t clone in a weekend. (Or, so I hope).

I also need to re-read my review of The Dip.
