Purpose of an MVP and Defining the Right MVP I've really not talked as much about this in my blog even though its hugely important. The second bullet, getting feedback from customers is most often not valid either. Examples might be a recommendation engine, search engine, matching engine or something with a complex interface.

By far the most popular post on this blog is 32 Questions Developers May Have Forgot to Ask a Startup Founder. I find myself sending it to startup founders all the time – maybe just slightly less than Free Startup CTO Consulting. It was originally written in 2011 and has had amazing staying power.
