Easy to take everything out of context isn't it? Also you would have to assume that the people hosting the comments where either KGB or Stasi... Are you referring to Techcrunch?

We can all pull the "Mark never walked in our shoes" line, but what he is trying to say is that transparency is inevitable as we march forward into the information age. So we might as well accept our convictions and live with them. As for t

This is why YC looks at the team dynamic and the individuals to determine which teams to fund and help. All good ideas are worthless without proper execution and superior knowledge in the subject matter.

The micro graph was not designed to be an exact science to the phenomena that occurs with group-buying. It was added to give the reader a visual representation of my overall argument towards Groupon. There are no data points, it is merely a

I understand they have more visibility in an other wise hidden market. However, short term advertising and pricing only moves you on the same demand curve. Unless you end up converting those discount buyers. I think Groupon is a great way t

Do you have any example work I can look at? I have a startup www.qlobe.com and we are looking for another developer.

He is an 800-lb gorilla that thinks he is stronger than all the other 800-lb gorillas. Always interesting to see two beasts battle.

Businesses that use Groupon as a demand side solution are the ones beating themselves up. Businesses that use Groupon as a supply side solution reap the rewards. Groupons are great for getting rid of excess inventory, but its terrible for r

When I found myself a third co-founder it extremely helped out our startup. Not only do you have a third head to help out, but you have another person to balance out the other two founders. I find working with just one other person can lead
