Jon and Justin discuss:


Good mics for podcasters. Justin recommends the Samson Q2U
and the ATR2100. Make sure you get a pop filter!

Starting our 6-week cycle (based on Basecamp's Shape Up)

Working through unknowns for software projects: "Where do we
start?"

What's it been like being a transparent startup? Is it still
a good idea?

"It feels less and less comfortable, and I don't know why." –
Jon

"All people see is the revenue numbers; they don't understand
what's happening underneath those numbers." – Justin

"Wait a second. Bootstrapped startups are different: the goal
isn't to change the way people behave, it's to recognize where
people are already in motion."

How long should you work on an idea before you quit?
