Another way of thinking about the iPad
damoon highlights some of the reasons why I am exciting for the iPad:
Reaction to Apple’s unveiling of the iPad yesterday was decidedly mixed. A lot of the negative reaction could be summed up with this statement, “Why do I need this?”. If you have an iPhone and own a laptop, what exactly do you need a iPad for?
Another way to look at the iPad is not as a personal computing device but as an...

One Third of Women in the Military are Raped →
This needs to be brought to everyone’s attention and needs to stop ASAP:
newsjunkiepost reports:
In 2003, a survey of female veterans found that 30 percent said they were raped in the military. A 2004 study of veterans who were seeking help for post-traumatic stress disorder found that 71 percent of the women said they were sexually assaulted or raped while serving. And a 1995 study of...

Its not the size of your market, its what you do...
bryce talks about the motion in the ocean be sure to pay attention:
One of the most pedestrain of questions that arise in many VC meetings is that of market size. How big is your market? Really. I’ve found that should this question arise more than once over a series of meetings, you’re better off looking elsewhere for funding than the blue shirt and khaki MBA staring at you pointedly from across...

Hire Tough
Hire Tough
Too often we hire our friends, people we know.
We have to be WAY tougher.
Not to be confused with “demand amazing background and experience.”
Rather, hire those who are ready to rise to new heights. Demand that.

Three Reasons BNE is a Douche
My buddy Adam Quirk and I share the same disgust for BNE
wreckandsalvage:
At the risk of sounding completely uncool, I think this guy is a douche on par with balloon-boy’s dad and every other publicity-seeking, talentless, egomaniacal dickface in our society.
Here’s why:
1. Three-letter stickers in a nondescript vanilla font are not creative. If you’re tagging to protest against advertising,...

WatchAnthony Atala discusses growing new organs at TEDMED
At 11 minutes in he shows a desktop printer, printing a 2-chambered heart!!! Its still experimental and against my policy for this site but the idea of using unnatural organs is amazing and needs to enter the people’s consciousness ASAP.

The trouble with convergence
justinday:
Sure, cable is the new land line. People are canceling in droves and heading for platforms like Boxee, Roku, and others. Here’s the rub though. None of the stuff we worked so hard to build for the desktop works in the living room. We can’t effectively measure drop-offs, or even views in some cases. We can’t run any of the innovate ad products that we’ve spent so much time...
