Comment on So, you just won Startup Weekend. Now what?

Before you get too confident about being the next YouTube, consider there are already at least two startups doing this exact thing. I can only remember one now, VoiceTap, but there is at least one more that I remember had a single founder.

There are other competitors as well, but that just validates that there is market interest in this field. Having no competitors is much more suspect!

I don't know that anyone on the team seriously considered a YouTube scale exit. In fact, thinking about exits this early is probably a giant red flag.

Thanks for this info. What was the name of the other company?
