“Dick Costolo, co-founder of FeedBurner and now COO of Twitter, describes a start-up as the process of going down lots of dark alleys only to find that they are dead ends. Dick describes the art of a successful start-up as figuring out they are dead ends quickly and trying another and another until you find the one paved with gold.”
