Really like the way the book backs up each of his 'theories' with real world examples showing how others have implemented them. If you dont get the book at least watch: http://techcrunch.com/disrupt/video/watch/piOHBzMjrYRS5_bzpu...

A classic case of 1 + 1 = 0? Been thinking recently, what internet brands have come back from the dead? (Not Apple, they are a hardware company.) The Napster brand was acquired, but the new company never really made it. I was chatting to a

Love this comment: The plans may draw other customers because “people don’t like bill shock,” he said. “Consumers will pay a premium for unlimited.” So true. People will pay a premium to know that that is all they will ever pay.

Household brands like Twitter, Google, Nike, Zara, Walmart, Ford and KPMG will IMHO pay. This is not binary, it is a continuum. Will TechCrunch buy theirs? Will AirBnb, Path or Zaarly? It is a risk decision for these businesses. For a relat

It can be super costly to legally gain control of a domain that contains your mark (tens of thousands of dollars). And there is no guarantee you will win it back. Trademarks are registered by country/territory, so even though you may have t

Congrats Liz, great little piece of kit! Think we are seeing the start of a new uber cheap PC market. Almost zero cost. It will make a big difference in the developing world and I think will be a huge hit (at least amongst the tech geeks) i

I think we almost have to. If you don't grab your trademark now then someone else might, and you don't want someone squatting on it with dodgy content :/ They are super expensive though, 10x the price of a .com.

Nice post :) Anyone used http://twitter.github.com/bootstrap/ ? Seems like a good starting point for someone wanting to get going without creating your own CSS classes. Nice, clean design and code. Think it will be perfect for mockups and

Totally agree. Startups are bets. You may win or you may lose. I think the point is that the upside is huge, although unlikely. While failure, the more likely path, still means you learn a lot and make a lot of great contacts that can help

Totally agree that TC will not 'make or break' your company. The beauty of being a startup is that you are judged primarily on your product. It is as pure a meritocracy as you will find. This is why I love it. However, TC has become very po

I am a big fan of TC and of Arrington. Yes, he is not to everyone's liking, but he has built an amazing business from nothing. However, I have a problem with AOL & TechCrunch forming a startup fund. TC has a huge impact on the startup m

AOL = TechCrunch and AOL = CrunchFund (as it is AOL's capital seeding the fund) So even if the fund had a different name, and Arrington doesn't work for AOL directly, there is still a conflict of interest. As Paul Carr said in his article,
