  1. @kentgoldman Kent, does First Round have any plan on visiting Chicago anytime in the near future?
  2. Interesting: apps.facebook.com/beachbar. I need a drink now
  3. You just can't replicate the bootstrap-fund-scale ecosystem of Silicon Valley anywhere else... it's all in the air you breathe!
  4. Came across a great question few months back: who is the biggest customer of VCs? Entrepreneurs or LPs?
  5. Why coolest developers often can't become entrepreneurs themselves? Becuz of NIH (not invented here) syndrome.
  6. I wonder sometime: why Larry Page doesn't tweet?
  7. I will not b surprised if Twitter starts sending messages to people asking to tweet more. The pressure is on.
  8. Wish VCs biggest customers were entrepreneurs.. not their LPs!
  9. Sometimes, looking for the right investment for you company is such a waste of time - rather focus on the product & market
  10. Amazon AWS Beta console is just amazing. Wait till they come up with complete Linux box management from the web!
  11. All mushroom video platform companies are pretty much enabled by Amazon AWS. I still don't see much of a breathtaking tech in their offering
  12. It's absolutely critical that one has patience in the business of building businesses. For alpha people, the world just doesn't go that fast
  13. Building an organization from scratch is the biggest fun one can have... try it out if you don't believe it!
  14. Can you draw the demand curve for VC money? How many entrepreneurs really run for VC capital when the cost of having it increases heavily?
  15. So many entrepreneurs claim themselves to be serial but in reality they are often onetime wonder.... Why?
  16. Cloud computing is soon going to be one such as well. I am eagerly looking at Azure's big push. Btw, they got a huge datacenter in Chicago
  17. A novel application suddenly becomes a commodity just by the virtue of a change in infrastructure platforms - CDNs once used to be one such
  18. It is just fascinating to see how the video delivery platform segment is evolving and has reshaped over the last 6 months
  19. There was a nice question somewhere in blogosphere: Who do you think is the most important customer of a VC? Can you guess?
  20. When we are trying to narrow the sales funnel, some weird event just slows us down on speed and we re-evaluate the funnel length again
