Back in 2006, I wrote something on how Google could be more valuable than MSFT by 2010 given:
a) given its historical growth rate
b) projected growth rate
c) size of paid search today
d) expected growth of paid search by 2010 (40% of online advertising)
e) MSFT’s lack of stock movement
In that analysis I pegged Google’s revenue growth at […]

I postponed penning a business plan for the longest time. I finally put one together this past weekend. It took me 10 hours from start to finish, 37 pages in all, and that also yielded a 6-page executive summary.
Anyway, I was able to bang it out in a weekend cause it was the amalgation of […]

If you’re anything like me you try and keep up with good concerts that come through town, but find yourself so busy that you can’t remember when they are, and then end up missing them. It happens to me all the time. If you use iTunes then you’re also like me… and a bajillion other people, […]

I am looking to begin monetizing our search product, MetaMojo.com. It dawned on me that a nice introduction in the search marketplace/ecosystem where an aggregator essentially taps into:
- Google
- Yahoo!
- any other PPC engines

Life running a start-up is very unique. You have highs, and you have lows. In one day, you ride a rollercoaster of emotions, so just imagine the spectrum of feelings you go through in one year.

On the matter, former Green Bay Packer coach Vince […]

Oh yeah, way to start the new year. We’ve already had a very nice start to the year in terms of revenue, so this email was a nice little welcome.
It’s the 30th of the […]

Fred Wilson is usually right. His track record speaks volumes. He’s right as a VC and as blogger, and his music taste ain’t to shabby either. But once in a while, everyone misses the mark, well, sort of.
I’ve been really busy with the company’s torrid growth thus far in 2007. So I missed quite a bit […]

I had missed this altogether, but apparently Carl Icahn has invested “tens of millions of dollars” in HowStuffWorks. HSW was launched by Marshall Brain and is arguably one of the better sites out there, one that, well, does not make the Web look dumb. Of course, when your last name is Brain, you can’t exactly […]

All right, I don’t know what is worst, the fact that Current.tv [looks like they] lost their URL at current.tv or that they lost their URL and no one in the mainstream media, blogosphere, online video watchers or tech sector actually noticed.
I am not sure what Current.tv is, frankly, I know it’s backed by former VP Al […]
