There is room for fund-raising and marketing at start-ups. If you think you can help start-ups with your skill set, apply for appropriate jobs, and try and network with the industry you want to work in.

Or you can start writing some code, and see what happens. Do you have a website?

If you don't think hacking is appropriate, then learn the business side. If you can take a bunch of hackers with a good idea and figure out how to turn that into a business and money then you shouldn't have much of a problem. Any coding types worth working with will know that there are "business-y things" that they're better off not doing and will eventually wish they had someone to pick that stuff up.

I don't have a website, just a Posterous blog that doesn't seem relevant to post here. I've created a couple WP blogs and helped out a lot with site design/content for past work roles. It's a great idea to try and do my own thing, if only to at least learn while doing. Thanks.
