It seems to be the latest craze on the streets. Just say “internet startup” and everyone goes nuts.

But it aint that easy. You don’t just decide to make an online business one day and announce your IPO the next day... or if you do, I wish somebody would brief me dammit!

Heh... where was I? Ah yes... in the beginning... an idea. Yes, you do need an idea to start. Why are you going into business? What do you hope to accomplish? For me it was a burst of light from above, a veritable epiphany (yes, its a word, look it up).

I suddenly realized as I was taking a jig saw to my case to add in that 7th cooling fan that Enlight SHOULD have installed... hey, I bet there are other kooks out there just like me. Ya know, I bet some of them have money too... hmmm.... and 2CoolTek was born.

Mission statement: To have fun. Yep, thats it. I actually enjoy this stuff, and I am happy talking to people about it. I don’t care if someone will actually buy a fan or heatsink, I get off helping them tweak that overclocked system to its maximum potential. Weird, eh?

So, the most important thing here is to wear sunscreen... err... to enjoy what you want to do. Period. If you don’t enjoy it, you won’t put everything into it, and more than likely, you will fail. Soo... off we go, into the wild web yonder... (sorry, 11 years of USAF speaking there)
