A quick test (using 10 startup cliches) to see if you're ready to do a startup. It's a bit silly, but hey....it's Saturday morning.
The best part of this are people sharing the results on twitter... and it's always a "drop it" :D
Hello guys,
I'm the maker of Ultimate Startup Decision Maker.
Of course, as Eric said, it's just for fun but if you have any feedback don't be afraid to share ;)
This is cute but does it really beat out a bunch of legitimate products that people spent time building? Barely legible, terrible advice, this is why I wish PH had a down vote button. Sorry, I couldn't bite my tongue any longer.
@arlogilbert it's a silly tool made just for fun... like many others here on PH ;)
@duplikey @arlogilbert That's the sad part on PH: too many "just for fun" when there are legitimate products in the "upcoming" tab that never get listed.
My favorite part:
Could probably do this with a "real" product and it would serve the same purpose as saying "featured on." It definitely got me at first.
Too bad I didn't find this sooner as its clearly let me know I'm not cut out for what I've gotten myself into.

@duplikey the fun fact is in our team we are 6 of us. The decision to go full fledged through an average came 80-20. Haha
The day this tool got famous I remember a lot of "famous" CEOs trying it... And sharing their results... Still I haven't heard of a startup that passes this test :)
@micnasti LOL... it should be used in universities, incubator and accelerator :D
Awesome fun stuff. I wish it asked a different set of questions everytime. After the first attempt the key to "Start a startup" was evident.
@das_vicky lol... a lot of people are telling me that!
It's just a funny test built in a couple of hours. If you have ideas for more "stupid" questions feel free to share ;)
@das_vicky Same here. I hesitated to submit this because of that reason. I mentioned it to Raffaele.
@erictwillis yes, I remember. This featured on PH could be a good way to collect new funny questions ;)
@duplikey @das_vicky one question that comes to my mind "Should I start a startup?
On a iighter note, this product is an ephemeral product. You use it only once.
@das_vicky that's right! You use it once, you get a "drop it" and you hate it :p
