My company, TechEmpower , recently added a few top notch developers, but it wasn’t easy to find just the right people. I took a look at TechEmpower, and it looks like you guys are doing great! I’m seeing and hearing that it’s becoming tough finding good developers again, at least here in Los Angeles.

The role of a CTO varies as the company matures. And you certainly don’t want to be the company that spends time and money building something you could have picked up off the shelf. Should a startup CTO spend their time programming? Exploring new technologies? Increasing competitive advantage? The answer is: it depends.

Steve Gilison worked as a market researcher and product manager at a startup where my company, TechEmpower , did the software / web development.

He tells us: If you’re starting a new internet company, its important to know who your audience is, and to make sure that you don’t let your own experience and that of other Time Poor people guide you wrong. In it he separates web consumers into: Time Rich (more time than money) and Time Poor (more money than time).

In the 1980s, high-tech companies stored information about their customers on their sophisticated and high-cost computer equipment. Back then such practices were exceptional except at relatively large companies.
