Outsource to middle America

Jason Calacanis of Mahalo.com wrote a good article on 18 tips on saving money running a startup. Here at the Littlelines headqarters we certainly follow a few of them - Macs, second monitors, Google mail, expensive chairs. Number eighteen is particularly interesting to us since we are located in the heart of middle America.

“ Outsource to middle America: There are tons of brilliant people living between San Francisco, Los Angeles, and New York who don't live in a $4,000 one bedroom apartment and pay $8 to dry clean a shirt--hire them!
We are happy to oblige! Thanks Jason for recognizing the sometimes overlooked talent located only a few hours away.

Man! I feel so smart all of a sudden! I run my whole operation from a MacBook and Google Docs (well, TextEdit whenever possible), save on commuting by working from home, and live in (right) middle America! Now all I need is a decent chair… this Ikea tractor-seat thing looked cool in the store, but my back misses the Aerons at my old agency.
