What about this article has to do with his drive? It's about Yahoo paying him $81MM to retain him for the next four years.

Yeah there were a lot of broad categories that I really wish gave more specifics on the types of companies within them.

When my business partner and I were starting our first business we would unwind at night by watching motivating movies like these. Some of the ones we watched included: Boiler Room, Wallstreet, and Glengarry Glen Ross. Two more recent movi

Not to sidetrack too much, but was there ever a postmortem on Referly? I thought it was a great idea, and the Referly homepage currently only shows stats that ostensibly show strong usage. I still think a user-curated affiliate referral pl

There are some blind people who use echolocation to remarkable degrees. Take for example this boy who's able to rollerblade in the streets, bypassing moving vehicles using echolocation: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G1QaCeosUmw .

While admittedly not a fair assessment, when you compare the value that Wordpress has added to the internet ecosystem versus Tumblr, I would argue that Wordpress has had an astoundingly greater impact. There's really no fair comparison to b

I think that's actually the point of the piece: David is so focused on product that he doesn't want to deal with things like operations or revenue that the deal makes sense. Yahoo will take care of those things, and David can focus on the

Yeah, we've all seen this story played out many times. It's a move that's good for the short term but terrible for the long term.

Only anecdotal evidence here, but I've noticed a lot fewer people reposting everything from Instagram onto their FB profiles. I see a lot more of my friends using Instragram as an autonomous social network, and at least among my friends, it

All these naysayers about Facebook's malicious intentions in here, but I think this is actually a very intuitive feature for Instagram that a lot of users thought should have been a part of the app from the start. I'd be surprised if this

I don't think it's an accurate assessment of one's ability to be successful as an angel investor based on which ycombinator startups they would choose to hypothtically fund. Ycombinator startups already go through a thorough vetting process

My startup journey consisted of incremental stages in terms of my financial growth. I started with some student loan money designated for books and learned some affiliate marketing arbitrage. The first day I spent $50 and made about $50 pro

I agree. You could even argue from a business perspective that Groupon's making a wiser business decision by using the time value of money more in its favor.

It's easy to write off Elon Musk's attacks on Top Gear and the NYT as an overzealous founder defending his company or as a savvy PR strategy against bad press, but you also have to keep in mind the number of parties that want to to see Tesl

There's nothing scarier to me than people of power who are so drunk in their own arrogance that they refuse to ever accept that they could be in the wrong. I too hope that this come back to bite her.

I think this is cheap and tacky on the part of Wikileaks. Regardless of whether Aaron was or wasn't a source for them, they're trying to take some of the widespread positive public sentiment towards Aaron for their own cause.

You're just falling into Facebook's ostensible justification for aggressive monetization tactics. This is content that users voluntarily signed up to receive. Facebook is already setup for users to curate what content they receive. They cho

I don't understand. You can only have a Facebook for brands platform if the audience is there first(ie the social network). Who are the brands going to promote to without the social network there to consume and spread the brand's content. T
