how to become CTO

  1. Wear a suit
  2. Say “I am not a micro-manager”
    • if actually a micro-manager, say “I am hands-on”
  3. Mention Joel Spolsky
  4. Mention “Web 2.0″
    • bonus points for mentioning “Web 3.0″

Y’know, I am not that far off. I predict that given 6 years, and in an alternate universe without law school, I could be CTO.

Update: also…

  1. Refer to technology that was around “before you guys were born”
    • bonus point for addressing interviewer as “young man”

    Web 2.0 = B.S.
    More important than the suit is the tie.
