is he talking about something like this: http://www.techstars.org/hackstars/



Wow, what a great find!! Sadly I don't think this will work, though I would love to be proven wrong.

A brand new, two person startup in my (limited) experience isn't able to give an intern the support they need.

At Xobni we had a one-month intern from MIT when it was just Matt and I. I still regret that we weren't able to give him the full startup experience. He wouldn't be around long so he couldn't work on anything core, which meant that his work didn't really get much support from me. And he was burning the midnight oil side by side with us, with no definite long term stake in the company.

But who knows. Anyone been through the HackStars program and able to share their feedback?

I also imagined better pay -- like a $90k equivalent salary.
