80% of the time is spent in the last 20%. the devil is truly in the details.
Honestly, this post itself is a red flag to me. Please take this post for what its worth (I may very well be wrong), but IMHO if you do not already have the resources necessary to get your startup to market already I think you might be in trouble. Adding people onto a project at the end to get it done, usually ends up in failure. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Mythical_Man-Month
Plus, your going to have to be wayyy more descriptive in order to get an accurate guage of interest. Why not talk freely about what/where your service is here? Doing that alone should get you some good feedback
:) The question was hypothetical. Besides being of interest to any small cash-strapped startup, your answers are being used in the construction of an AI system. Knowing the factors that are most important to a venture's contributors will help us determine an algorithm to value the contributions.
So, basically, you don't have an alpha version of anything, you don't need a 20% development push, and you're not looking to gather 4 more people. Do you folks have anything to do with YouNoodle, perchance?
