CoFounder Weekly is a slightly silly newsletter about startup culture. This is not your average newsletter (could be better or worse).

Editor’s Note: We just got back from SaaStr Annual, the conference all things SaaS. It was quite awesome — including a whopping 10,000 founders, investors, and execs.
We added about 50 subscribers during conference by meeting folks and inviting them to subscribe if we thought this type of content was their cup of tea. Literally doing something that doesn’t scale. If you’re one of those new subs, hello!
And here’s Greg’s tweet recap of SaaStr.
