Why don't you have any users? One thing you must always do in startup land is focus on the users of your company.

IF you truly have none, well. No great loss if you bail.

But if you could have more, just haven't actually focused on the user sufficiently well to have a fair few of them, then I suggest you: Focus On The User.

Startup-dilemna can be overwhelming, especially when its as catastrophic as your situation sounds, but that is why it is good indeed to have a few faithful rules to guide yourself by. If you're a tech guy, you love what you're doing, really, then you must have happy users somewhere.

Or?
