Curious to know what Ted’s been up to? Head on over to here and sign up.

Yes, I’m a CTO of a bootstrap startup. (Emphasis on the “bootstrap” part of that–always looking for angel investors!) And no, we’re not really in “stealth mode”, I’ll be happy to tell you what we’re doing if you drop me an email directly; we’re just trying to “manage the message”, in startup lingo.

We’re only going to be under wraps for a few more weeks before the real site is live. And then…. *crossing fingers*

Don’t be too surprised if the tone of some of my blog posts shifts away from low-level tech stuff and starts to include some higher-level stuff, by the way. I’m not walking away from the tech, by any stretch, but becoming a CTO definitely has opened my eyes, so to speak, that the entrepreneur CTO has some very different problems to think about than the enterprise architect does.
