Seth Grodin has best selling books, one of the most popular blogs, and a popular web site: squidoo.com It's not my cup of tea but for many people, he's a very relevant and important voice. It's motivational stuff.

I used to work at Sun. The major problem is that they don't understand how to make money from open source. Their business model has always been high price contracts with big companies. Unfortunately, that model no longer works for them a

I have long admired Krugman's analysis. I haven't read his academic work on economics of scale but if it is of the same quality as his articles, the nobel prize is well deserved.

I think that it's too early to say that America has lost its dominant economic role. When it's true, it won't make such a long news story because it will be obvious and uninteresting. The length of the news stories shows that it is still ea

There's also interesting affiliate programs. Everyone knows about Amazon's affiliate program. There's also Linkshare.com that represents a large number of web sites as well as numerous web sites that have an affiliate link.

From my experience, most companies want someone who will add value on day one and who gets along with the existing team. Don't be intimidated by the questions. Keep your confidence high and make sure to answer honestly in a straight forwar

Funny reading this. I just resigned today. No kidding. If I had seen this post before resigning, perhaps I would have sent it instead of the one I sent.

It should probably be pointed out that Patrick was later arrested and since then, has been largely written out of the Java story. http://news.zdnet.com/2100-9595_22-515722.html http://slashdot.org/articles/99/09/20/0744243.shtml

I am fascinated with everyone's response to DHH. Maybe it's because I am a bit older. I've been working in industry for 20 years. The subscription model and the idea of going after Fortune 5 million businesses, is from my view, the standa

I thought that Sam Altman's presentation was very informative. He gave great advise about VCs. His talk fit in well with Jack Sheridan's talk. For me, David Hansson's talk was pretty obvious but it seemed to be very relevant to most peopl

I've planned my departure from my current gig in 2 years. The main reason for the delay is that I need to regain my technical edge. I've been a manager for 7+ years and am not at the level I once was. I'm also playing around with some idea
