As I understand it, it is the venture capitalists who are worried that startups can go from the garage to Google acquisition with just angel money without needing venture capital. So some of that criticism comes from feeling threatened.
Michael Arrington, on the other hand, seems to take issue with the fact that some startups are aiming at Google from the start instead of aiming at greatness and landing at Google.
Personally, I wouldn't mind creating a "dipshit company" that sells for $25 million
Would you rather come up with a great idea you are passionate about and see it through to completion, or build something that you know Google (or similiar) will snap up for $25 million?
