The thing is, once you've had a success, you now have enough money to buy your way over certain hurdles or attack industries that can't be tackled with $5 VPS and a MacBook Air. Plus VCs are 10x more likely to give you their money

I met my wife at church. I wouldn't recommend going to church solely to meet someone (although some do), but if you want to meet more people going places is the first step. Church, park, gym, library, farmers market, meetups, coffee

I guess it depends on how much Ruby one needs to qualify. But I think Zendesk ended up with a higher valuation on their IPO opening day. Their market cap is now $1.8B.

Agreed 100%. There's so much purchasing intent on Pinterest. I think it could be a stronger platform than Facebook for advertising non-digital goods. Every bride uses Pinterest (and now most wedding vendors and bloggers). My mother-in-

Yes, to me the dress looks gold and white. Granted, we're looking at a side of the dress which is in shade (thus there's a tint). But, in my mind, the dress is clearly white and gold. My wife, on the other hand, first saw it as bl
