Okay.

> So, my question is ... how do early stage startups recruit hackers?

Shouldn't you know that?

Seriously - if you don't know how people do it now, what makes this a good biz for you to get into?

I run a magazine for software developers, so my strength is in the access/contact with hackers as well as detecting who is a good fit for a given startup.

What I am unsure of, is if I should sell my services directly to founders or if my direct customers should be headhunters who are already working with startups.

Okay

how do you know that? Maybe you've got something else, but your stated strength has nothing to do with startups.
