I recently started to use YouTube to watch videos, but to also upload my own videos for my personal blog. I have had many problems with YouTube not uploading the video correctly or at all, being one of the first times a Google product (though acquired) has sincerely let me down. After four [...]
I have really been boycotting Twitter. I don’t get why I would want to use it and have noticed other VC’s who have been slow to the adoption of this product (which makes me feel a little better). However…… it seems like Twitter is all over the place and I run into [...]
My friend Jon turned me onto a new little start-up called DoMyStuff.com. This site is right up my alley as I am always looking for little gigs to earn spare cash in my free time.
The concept of the business is to allow everyone, not just high power executives, to reclaim valuable time by outsourcing [...]
Today I was using LinkedIn and saw this icon for the first time. I consider myself a “frequent” user of LinkedIn, so clicked on it and learned it was a symbol of a premium account holder. Odd.. how had I not seen this icon before? Are people not making the jump [...]
It is funny how I now have a handful of posts on people search engines as these have randomly been a result of this blog. I started this blog as a way to track my research resources so that I could later reference it (which surprisingly I do quite often), but listing these [...]

When I initially blogged I had yet to check out Wink. Since [...]
Update on my Yahoo posting. In the February 26th edition of eWeek it was announced that Yahoo had integrated chat into their email software. It is great that they are now offering this service, but seems to go along with my previous posts that they aren’t the quickest in the Web2.0 space. [...]
I ran across the company WuFoo today due to a ZDNet Blog. I had never heard of WuFoo, perhaps due to the fact that they haven’t raised any VC money so haven’t hit any of the wires I read.
I’ve only looked around at the website and not tried the product yet, but my initial [...]
There were two stories in yesterday’s news that intrigued me that they were coincidently released on the same day. The first was a discussion of Wikipedia and the false identity of one of the main editors. The guy, Ryan Jordan, used the username Essjay to create an identity stating that he had [...]
I hadn’t heard of Twitter until I went to the Slopecast Luncheon this past week. Now that I have heard about it, I see the logo on quite a few venture capitalist’s blogs. I think I am going to boycott joining for awhile because it is an IM platform that focuses on one [...]
