MicroISV on a Shoestring

Ok, I've finally gotten around to working on my corporate website and blog templates.  I've added another section entitled, "BlogRoll" to the right navigation bar.  This is where I will link up respectable blogs which have a focus on either running a small business or mISVs in general.

The first is Patrick McKenzie's blog, "MicroISV on a Shoestring." 

Patrick took 8 days to develop a software product (http://www.bingocardcreator.com/) and in the scope of a year he's made around $10k gross.  While that isn't exactly within the ballpark of early retirement, I think it is respectable.

What's more important is that he has blogged his steps along the way and regularly contributed to BoS without being anonymous (most other BoS contributors are afraid someone will pilfer their ideas and compete with them).

For that he's earned my respect.
