Honestly, I don't know why Apple would create an iPad mini. I have an iPad 2 and absolutely love it. There isn't another tablet I'd trade it in for (other than an iPad 3). I surely wouldn't trade it in for an iPad mini. Paul Buchheit once s

Have you noticed anything peculiar about the best founders (and their companies)? Perhaps something they seem to have or do?

I had the opportunity to meet both John and Patrick recently. Like most, I've met many people over my life thus far. I'm a social person by nature. I feel as though I understand people. I've got a good sense for them. I'm not sure how else

How do you guys find out about new products and companies? I had never heard of Glancee or Karma (among many others) before I read the news that they had both been acquired by Facebook.
