Know More: Angel Investing, Raising Money from Angels, Tips for Entrepreneurs 2.0, Tips for Entrepreneurs

Chris Campbell has compiled handful of articles on the advantages and disadvantages of being first-mover in your space.

Here are a few highlights:

Too many first-movers put too much emphasis on marketing their product and not enough on making sure their business works.
"No advantage lasts forever, and the wise business knows that it is much harder to keep an advantage than it is to get it in the first place. First-mover status must never be a strategy in and of itself, only the prelude to a larger and longer strategic plan."
Seth Godin: "Yes, you must be first (and right) in that market or this market.
But that doesn't mean you have to be first (and right) in the universe."
