I received an inquiry from a reader of my blog and thought I would provide some thoughts, but would definitely welcome input: I am an unpaid CTO of a small startup.

I give a sneak peek at a blog post I’m writing on the topic next week. I spoke about the need of the CEO, CTO and head of Products to be in the same location. Google’s investment in Zynga. I’m going to make this a regular part of the show since it was really fun. Great exit. - Beyond The Rack.
