Building a Web
Application in 48 hours
Co-Founder of Sinefunc
Why put a cap on the
 development time?
Focus on the core of
   the application
Avoid feature creep
     early on
Case Study:
Standing on the
shoulders of giants
Does one thing and
  does it well:
Idea * Execution
= a very useful web
     application
+ Eating your own dog
         food
Idea: Sharing + Some
  sprinkles of vanity
Execution: Ruby /
HTML + CSS / jQuery
on Amazon's Servers
The Eagle has landed.
    Now what?
Iterate, Iterate, Iterate
Are people receptive to
  your idea enough?
Oh this is working
great! Let’s do more of
          that.
Questions?
