My partner Albert calculated early last year that it takes about 1/10th the hardware, software, bandwidth, storage, and other expenses to build a web service compared to what it took in the 99/2000 time period. That was just as services like Amazon Web Services, <a
“ My recommendation to all of you entrepreneurs out there is to get off the negative sentiment treadmill, step up, and lead. The people working for your company are likely confused,
I spent 15 years in the States and left in 2006, precisely because I saw the horrifying decline of this great nation. Don't you think, though, that before a turnaround plan you need to do a SWOT analysis? Here's a quick stab at it:

Over the past week (eight plus days actually), I've been promoting this <a href="http://www.donorschoose.org/donors/viewChallenge.html?id=19055&category=14&zone=0">Donors Choose Giving Page on this blog and twitter. During that period, 26 people have given a total of $6055. We are basically on a path to raise about as much as last year
I received a bunch of requests yesterday to address Jason Calacanis' "startup depression" email that was sent out over the weekend. Alley Insider had the full text of it online but they took it down yesterday, apparently at Jason's request. Fortunately
The teacher is asking for a set of classic novels, including "The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn" by Mark Twain, one of my favorites. I can easily recall the thrill of reading Huck Finn for the first time. The cost is $518. It's a compelling case, and it's from a Bronx middle school; early in my career as a journalist, I spent a fair
Google was down big yesterday and is now retesting its lows from earlier this year.

I watched the debate last night like many other americans. Although the nationwide numbers aren't available until monday, it appears that about 40% of americans watched last night.
