- nostrademons 14y agoSuccess = has traction in a market large enough to be of interest to a VC. Usually that's the hard part of entrepreneurship; if you can demonstrate you've attained that once, getting funding for subsequent endeavors is a lot easier.

- nostrademons 14y agoFrom the perspective of "Is Kevin Rose likely to get funded again?", absolutely. From a user perspective or the perspective of one of the founders, it's less clear. I remember ojbyrne being less than happy about how it turned out. The fact that they even had users is more than 90% of startups, manage, though.
