On my weblog I tend to link to this posting quite often. This short blog entry defines the primary audience for my weblog and for this book: someone with a technical background who is involved in the management of a small ISV. I usually refer to this kind of a person as a geek founder.
As you’ll see, my definition of a small ISV is somewhat narrow. If you’re running a software company that doesn’t perfectly fit my definition (like a contracting shop or a VC-funded company trying to “get big fast”), keep your eyes open for stuff that doesn’t fit your situation.
