An Introduction to Silicon Valley

Thanks for the post. I organize Hackers and Founders SV, SF and Berkeley, and we're seeing tons of people show up at our events that have just moved to the area.

I keep saying that H&F really needs to set up a Silicon Valley Startup Wiki, but between boostrapping, Newsley and H&F, I simply don't have the time. I'd be happy to contribute content, because I answer these questions repeatedly at H&F events, but I don't have time to maintain it.

We also wiki topics covering about basic legal issues, incorporation, vesting schedules, equity stakes, term sheets, etc...

Maybe it's not a wiki. Maybe it's a Q&A site, but either way, there needs to be more content about the meat and potatoes of starting a startup, and less blog posts on "I did x and it lead to Y awesome thing for me".

This blog post is a great start. We need a ton more content like this.

Good point, I'll add hackers and founders to the list. Feel free to copy/paste my post into a wiki somewhere

Will do, Ryan.

I'm working on getting a wiki off the ground with Startup Square. If and when it launches, you'll see it here.

I also second doing this also. And we can list it on our Startup Resources section as well.
