Ask PG: Is Founders at Work 2 still pending?

from the self-post dept.

The Mixergy interview with PG (Feb 2010) mentions Jessica working on a second edition of Founders at Work.

PG: "You know, that is her deepest wish. If she is watching this, she’ll be laughing so much at this point because that’s what she would like the most too to be able to spend more time on the new version of Founders at Work. There’s a new, she’s working on a new edition, with a bunch of new interviews."

Any updates on this?

Yes, she still plans to, but we have two small children and spending time with them is more important to her.

That is the most satisfying answer; I couldn't agree more.

Any way you could release those kids' apps?

I hope so, I really enjoyed Founders at Work. I read it when I was 16, loved making things on the web but had no idea about startups in the Valley, being from London. Jessica's talk at Startup School felt like an update, which was great.

Project "Founders at Work II" should be funded by YC. May it gets completed.

I wasn't aware of that Paul Graham interview on Mixergy. Thanks for sharing the link.
