My golden rule is: Never let anyone else code for you. By that I mean, do not outsource people or pay freelancers to create your app or website. Every programmer has his own mindset and his own way of writing a code. If you give your code to 100 different programmers each of them will have their own way to improve or change code.

If you are not a programmer...

I have a secret formula for all of you who wants to have a successful startup. Are you ready to find out this super awesome secret ingredient!?

And formula is: Work, work, work, work, work, work. Sorry guys, I just had to trick you. There is no secret formula to startup success. At least 90% of all startups fail.

I had my own startup and I worked in one as a developer. I also followed some local startups I had a chance to meet and I got pretty good idea why they failed...

Gimme more

Hah, I’m not saying I’m on NZT, like Bradley Cooper in Limitless, but I just need to keep going on, I need more knowledge and I want more challenges. I spent 10 years of my life (now I’m 24) programming, mostly...

“Here I go again on my own. Goin’ down the only road I’ve ever known…”
You all know lyrics to this song, at least most of you.

“So here I go again in another city, now in Budapest, Hungary, just on little business trip for 3 days, nothing more. This is my second time visiting Budapest, first time with my friends, this time alone. I guess I won’t be doing business all the time…”

I was right

...

Damn, I’ve realized that just now. Well, you learn something new every day…



So, now what? Something’s changed?

Actually a lot changed. My first startup was all about product, all about web site. You know, like: make it functional, make it perfect, sell the product, sell features… Damn, I was wrong.

What I’ve learned by building Blitzer?...
