Sam, could you (or any other Angel investor) talk frankly about the money your put in and what your exact returns have been. How much have you had to reinvest in later rounds too. I can't find any really experienced angel to talk frank

Is it just me or is Amazon launching new services at an exponentially faster clip these days? In my mind, they're really starting to separate themselves from the other tech powerhouses in terms of integrated innovation.

I haven't seen any public records on the sale of IndexTank, but I'm pretty sure they didn't sell for $1.6MM. I think you're reading the amount of funding they received before the sale.

I know nothing about writing novels so I can't attest to the legitimacy of any of this, but I do wholly believe that a lot of what's considered art can be be formulated for success, at least commercially.

The Beats deal comes down to two things: 1) The "premium mobile audio" market is going to be the next huge market where Apple and Samsung face-off. It's no coincidence that Samsung announced their new line of premium headphon

For a long time, people carrying Macbooks were seen in the same light as those that are seen wearing Beats headphones: suckers who bought over-priced (ostensibly premium) commoditized hardware with superior marketing. Perhaps these companie

As I mentioned below, Beats is first and foremost a fashionable hardware company for the mass markets, which Apple is too. In that sense they're very much in sync. As the dominant hardware company, why not acquire an up and coming fash

I can't believe no one has yet mentioned that Samsung just last week announced that they were entering the "Premium Mobile Audio Products" market. This likely has nothing to do with Beats' crappy streaming music software

Did you build the sites yourself (aside from the blog) or is it built on a cms? Also, where you do you get your traffic from? I can't imagine a site like this indexes well in search engines.

I believe those products you mention are commercially available in the US as Pepcid AC and Zantac. I've personally seen the lessened effect of flush through the use of Pepcid, but there were other side effects. I'll give Zantac a

Yeah, this is extremely interesting to me either way. By knowing which way only one card is facing, you still tilt the deck in your favor ever so slightly. After using the same deck over multiple rounds, I assume you tilt the edge in your f
