I've read every one of these so far. They've all been great! Blake, if you're on HN, just wanted to say thanks! (If these were converted into an ebook or paperback, I'd eagerly buy it.)

Slightly off-topic: I had always thought Adam D'Angelo was a co-founder of Facebook, so I was surprised to not see his name listed in the ownership section. But Wikipedia lists Dustin Moskovitz, Eduardo Saverin, and Chris Hughes as co-found

What was/is Yahoo!? Was it a search engine? Was it a portal? Is it a news site? Is it a media site? Is it a portal? Is it a tech company? I think Facebook will always be a social network that's focused on building its core product(s) with g

Off-topic: I took a look at your startup, Lookcraft. As a guy who likes fashion, it looked interesting. But to be honest, I'm tired of having to register for these types of sites in order to use/try them upon the first encounter. Most real-
