The real story of Yahoo! Go

Last week at CES all the internet big guys had something to launch. MSFT & MTV are going after the music market, Google learned how to bundle software apps together and Yahoo announced Go. While a lot of blogger attention was paid to those Mountain View guys, I think people missed the real gem about […]

Most exasperating moments of 2005

With the holidays I’m a bit behind in blogging, so this is probably the last “look back on 2005” post out there.   When I look back at this 2005 I see a lot of great and memorable things that have happened in the world, the industry, at my company and for me.   But this post isn’t about […]

If only we could all be this honest…

Today, Jason points out a great thing: Bessemer Venture Partners Anti-Portfolio. BVP isn’t afraid to show how they totally […]

On the field at Wrigley
