Yes, I would agree. Although I would take it a step further for web engineers (developers) to say that if you don't have your N+ and/or Cysco certs, you shouldn't be designing.
I am also an Eagle Scout! I have been hired at previous "jobs" because I obtained the rank. Just remember the sky starts where the ground ends! Just get it off the ground, and your in the sky... :)
Nope, Already doing it. A user driven embed-able music polling platform / app. Its partially developed right now and will be rocking the music industry very soon. We also hold huge ground with existing social networks and launching already developed apps very soon. Looking forward to being the one that got away... and never looking back!
We check HN every day for comments / feedback from founders, but haven't looked at the app on YC. We constantly look at our copy to evaluate changes since submitting, and reform answers as other incubator programs have started following us. However we have not submitted to any other programs than YC. We feel the anticipation is awesome and look forward to checking HN daily until the final say is issued.
As for our video, neither of us like the camera so its terrifying to look at it and we haven't except the following day to verify it was posted. We really hope to get the chance to meet everyone in person. There is a lot about personal contact (meeting someone) that comes through, that you just can't portray in an app, or video.
