It's a great post, but I was a bit confused by the purpose of Mircrohaus and ventured on to the website. Unfortunately, I'm still a bit confused. Not confused by what it is, but by what the purpose is? I mean, why would people be attracted to this over other incubators? The application process, although seemingly informal, stil exists so I guess what I'm looking for is a sort-of pitch about Microhaus.

Myles doesn't need an incubator. This is not about giving away a % of your company for advice/connections/financing/whatever. He (and others like him) just want to work in an environment filled with like-minded individuals.

"why would people be attracted to this over other incubators"

It's focused on developing you -as a person- rather than a product. Microhaus doesn't take equity in whatever you're working on.

Then what does Microhaus get in return? Basically, how are you planning on keeping this thing afloat?
