Friday afternoon I am sitting at home waiting for the kids to get off the bus when I get an email that mentions a startup weekend. I think, what any crazy person would...that would be fun!

Little more than 48 hours later my germ of an idea won the competition and now we have invitations to lunches with CEOs, a meeting with a venture firm and several other requests for meetings.

I am not into the funding scene, more of a bootstrap guy myself but I feel I owe it to the team of people who joined me on the idea this weekend and to myself, to explore this opportunity and see what happens.

Where do I go next? What should be my next step?

(In case you are wondering, our pitch was a service called pivotal which used bits of metadata in and associated with your photo collection to help establish context and better organize it. Coupled with a fun new way to visualize the collection and you have the basic idea. Much deeper than two sentences but you get the idea)
