Times Were Bad, VCs Get Tough; Times Are
Good, VCs Get Tough
Times Were Bad, VCs Get Tough; Times Are
Good, VCs Get Tough
05/20/2004 01:05 PMAfter the bubble popped, many VCs practically stopped all investing.
In the cases where they did invest, they often put in
incre
dibly onerous terms that gave the VCs a lot more power than they
might have deserved (though, some VCs will disagree with this). Of
course, now that times are getting better, people are saying that
VCs are
tightening terms again - so as not to get burned. What
this really means is that many VCs are looking for any reason to make
the terms more in their favor. Times are bad? Terms need to be
tighter. Times are good? Terms need to be tighter to make sure they
don't go bad again. The obvious response, of course, is that it
is the VC's job to get good terms - but if those terms cause
more problems, it's a strategic mistake. If entrepreneurs feel that
their VCs are ripping them off, it defeats much of the purpose of
getting that VC money in the first place. Besides, as the startup
market picks up again (as it's doing) this becomes less of an issue.
Already, we hear stories about VCs offering ridiculous valuations to
companies because they're in a "hot" space. When competition for the
hot startups increases, VCs are suddenly willing to make the terms a
bit more reasonable.

06/22/2004 09:26 AMThe BBC carries word of a Bahrain man, Abdullah al-Hammadi, who
makes a living by selling unique phone and license plate numbers. His
latest, "9111119" has been put on the market for $13,200. And he'll
probably sell it, too -- a previous number sold for $7,000, and a "man
once bought his son a license plate for $16,000," to "encourage him to

Manipulating Google For Vanity And For
Politics
Manipulating Google For Vanity And For
Politics
01/22/2004 06:28 AMIt seems some people just can't get over their obsession with Google
results. The practice of "Google bombing" - getting a bunch of people
to link to a specific page with a specific phrase, so that a search on
that phrase returns the page, even if the phrase has nothing to do
with the actual page - is
turning into a political war as people on all
sides of the political spectrum are trying to associate various
negative words or phrases with politicians or policies they dislike.
This was sort of amusing the first time it happened, but now it just
seems really childish on all sides. It certainly doesn't do anything
to impact anyone's political beliefs. To me, it seems like the online
equivalent of a writing something bad about someone on a bathroom
wall. Meanwhile, though, there's another interesting trend that is
less annoying:
buying
ad keywords on your own name. The idea is not to influence the
main Google search terms, but to have some say in pointing people to a
specific site if they're searching on your name. It also lets you
know how many people are searching for you, as that will show up in
your Adwords statistics. It's becoming especially popular with
freelancer or individual professionals (doctors and lawyers) where
people are likely to search on their names. Apparently, it's become
quite a trend. I have no idea when this started, but the first person
I heard do this was
Glenn
Fleishman last July. Of course, there's a price involved - you
have to pay each time someone clicks on your ad.

Michael Syravong thought he'd
pulled a fast one on Washington's Department of Licensing when he got
a license-plate that read "GOTMILF." He told the department that MILF
stands for "Manual Inline Lift Fluctuator," But eventually, bluenoses
who are somehow familiar with the true meaning of the acronym (Google
it for the not-safe-for-work answer), complained to the department and
Syravong lost his plates.

Mobile Vanity Numbers, Saudi Style
Mobile Vanity Numbers, Saudi Style
06/23/2004 07:40 AMReader Majid Almadi sends this interesting bit about mobile vanity
numbers in Saudi Arabia:
In regards to your story about
Mobile Numbers. The problem is way more prevalent here in Saudi
Arabia.
- In newspapers, at least 40 percent of personal ads are about
'Special' Mobile numbers or license plates.
- People have been doing it for years. Recently, the Telecom Company
and the traffic department caught on and started holding 'Auctions'
for special numbers to get in on the action.
- The mobile number 055555555 was sold for SR 250,000 (US$ 67,000
Approx).
- Any requested mobile number starts at $250 for any request
whatsoever (say 050xyzabc) and increases as similar numbers are
grouped (for example 050xxyyyy).
- It is not uncommon to find listing for License plates these days
that are sold for $US 5000-20000.
This is probably the only country in the world where there people who
live off selling and buying numbers (License Brokers), and live quite
well.
- Recently, due to the over expansion of the Telecom Industry, the
Saudi Telecom Company (a long standing monopoly) added an extra digit
to mobile numbers to accommodate the growth. The papers were flooded
for weeks with complaints from people who owned 'Special numbers'
saying that their status (for some) and investment (for others) were
downscaled because the extra digit (a zero, now can be changed to a 5
for a $7 fee).
