Microsofts originalplan was to make money selling programming languages, of all things.Their current business model didnt occur to them until IBM droppedit in their lap five years later. Hackersshould do this even if they dont plan to start startups, because its the only real way to learn how to program. Thats nonsense.

bfliris So it sounds like with Meebo (your claim to fame) you were passionate about the idea but had no programming skill, partnered with two people that had strong programming ability and did very little to assist them in creating a succesful application. I have had a programming job and tried to do side projects after work/ weekends.
