I guess you are right. Most people I know arent startup types and are satisfied in their job. The startup types I know have their own startup or are working in a startup.

I'm trying to find startup types who are looking to start a startup.

I really like your idea of speed dating idea applied to cofounders.
The problem with http://collabfinder.com/, http://programmermeetdesigner.com/, http://cofoundr.com, http://partnerup.com is that they seem like job boards. I'm not looking for an employee to execute my idea.

I want to discuss ideas with them and agree together on what we want to work on.

I'm looking for a co founder who is willing to share some of risk of founding a startup. They may contribute capital, programming skills, design skills, but it's really the startup mindset that's most important. That's what makes them different from an employee.

Are you in the bay area?

Also what's your area of expertise: developer/designer/marketing etc

mine is engineering/product

Yes, my wife just gave me a strange look!

How did you go about finding people, investors, a place...
