Does anyone send monthly progress updates to friends?
I've heard from a lot of entrepreneurs that investor updates keep them accountable. Recently, I just started sharing a "personalized" version of these updates with my close friends -- I'm now building #monthli to productize this.

What do you think about a regular video group conference for makers, where everyone can practice pitching his product?
I am thinking of small video group conferences of up to 6 people, where everyone gets 10-15 minutes to pitch his project to the others. Gives practice, opportunity for valuable feedback and maybe even some kind of business connections. Regularily scheduled.

What can help parents become more tech-savvy?

Would you guys keep a journal/blog about your projects?
I am thinking to build a little blogging platform focused on the entrepreneurs, to give us a tool where dump our thoughts/process while shipping our projects.
I think it could be valuable for the entrepreneurs themselves, and for the readers that could find inspirations, learn about different ap...
How do you force yourself to press ahead when you meet resistance?
I often (not always) find that the more resistance there is, the more rewarding the goal.
I'm not talking about situations where the "universe" is clearly sending you a sign to stahp and re-evaluate (Not: "omg I couldn't find any customers who want this thing I'm building but I'm pressing ahead ...
