Target... for all your Kabbalah needs

Target... for all your Kabbalah needs 07/29/2004 12:01 PM
As part of her devotion to "Kabbalah" (note the quotation marks), Madonna sports a knotted red string as a protective talisman. Now, you too can block the evil eye with a Kabbalah Red String, just $25.99 from Target, your neighborhood supply house for mystical goods.

What makes this particular piece of string so special is, in part, the fact that it has traveled to Israel, to the ancient tomb of Rachel the Matriarch, and returned, imbued with the essence of protection... The string draws upon the connection to and awareness of Rachel and must be tied on by a loved one and sealed with Rachel's protective energy by reciting the Ben Porat prayer (included on a card).

iTunes Cards at Target

iTunes Cards at Target 02/18/2004 12:13 PM

A Reuters story reports that Target will be selling prepaid $15 iTunes Music Service (iTMS) cards off the rack alongside iPod mini's.

I predict that this will have a huge effect on the downloadable music industry; if consumers can use cash (or check) at Target or other retailers to prepay their music downloads — no need for a credit card — the market is opened to two huge untapped segments; kids (they'll be using these things like crazy) and those who can't get a credit card.

Also of note in the Reuters article is that Apple has reported selling 100,000 iPod Mini's in the two weeks since they were introduced. This in spite of critics claiming that they were priced too high. Watch in the coming weeks and months as the economies of scale kick in and the prices start to drop. Cool!

Diversity Mongers Target the Web

National Review's Heather McDonald responds to columnist Steven Levy's question: Does the blogosphere have a diversity problem? "Could it be that the premise of the 'diversity' crusade is wrong—that there are not in fact hordes of unknown, competitively talented non-white-male journalists held back by prejudice? Don’t even entertain the thought. Steven Levy certainly doesn’t. 'It appears that some clubbiness is involved'—that is, that white male bloggers only link to other white male bloggers." Do we need a race-based quota for web journalism? As racial identity is often anonymous, where would we start?

Is Venture Capital Over?

Is Venture Capital Over? 04/14/2005 04:52 AM
A well known venture capitalist is apparently claiming that the age of the VC is over, and is getting out of the business. The specifics of his claim are that VCs won't be able to earn the same sorts of returns they did in the 90s, which he chalks up to "systemic change." If anything, it sounds like he's channeling Nicho las Carr, who believes the tech industry is becoming commoditized and boring (misunderstanding that things first get interesting when stuff gets commoditized). Of course, the silly thing is that he seems to be comparing today's VC returns to what you could get in the 90s. He claims that "the eye-popping returns that make venture capital famous are history." Of course, the easy response to that is that perhaps most of the "eye-popping returns" were the aberration in the first place, built on the bubble of hype-cycles past. That means there's still plenty of opportunity in real innovation -- and even without that, you can bet that there will be more hype cycles and bubbles. History< /a> practically guarantees it. While bubbles aren't good for everyone, good VCs generally are able to make out quite well (since they bail out early enough) -- and we've already explained why bubbl es eventually are good for most people. While it's bad for those who get sucked up in the hype, it does accelerate innovation by allowing a lot of companies to quickly test (and discard!) many different ideas.

Venture Capital 101 01/06/2005 06:55 AM

In all the speculation about the deal I haven't seen what surely is the motivator. Six Apart plans to go public. The market will value SA based on it's ability to generate profits, and it will likely do so in proportion to the number of users, the theory being that they can sell things to the users, so the more users, the more they can sell. They might value each user at $100. Anyway, the more users the more value. LJ has a lot of users. So the founders of LJ get SA stock, and the shareholders in SA get more users, and value of the combined companies goes up and the day of the IPO gets closer.

Entrepreneurs Who Don't Want Venture
Capital 12/08/2003 04:41 AM
It seems like every few months a story just like this one show up somewhere about entrepreneurs (usually ones who have gone through the process before) are starting new companies without venture capital. The reporter (like in most of these articles) tries to make it out like this is a big conflict between those who "know better" and the venture capitalists. The truth seems quite different - and the story isn't supported by any of the actual quotes. Certainly there are entrepreneurs who get screwed by VCs, and there are many who go into the process the first time without realizing what they're giving up when they accept VC cash. However, the truth is that many businesses (and certain entrepreneurs) aren't right for VC money. Understanding what VCs are looking for, and what the process is like is important for anyone raising money. Then the entrepreneur can make the right decision about the best way to move forward. Sometimes that's with VC cash and sometimes it isn't. Everyone quoted in the article seems to understand that, but that's not as interesting a story for the paper. What would be better is if the press stopped making the implicit assumption that to do a startup you need to raise venture money - and that the companies that raise more money are the automatic powerhouses.

Has China Figured Out How To Do That
Venture Capital Thing? 04/11/2005 05:58 AM
Back during the boom years it seemed like every place on earth wanted to claim that they were the next Silicon Valley -- but about all the did was announce that they were going to do that, and come up with some lame nickname starting with Silicon: Silicon Farm, Glen, Beach, Alley, Mountain, Cove, etc. Beyond the fact that silicon usually had little to do with what few tech companies in these places were working on, most of these places lacked the real infrastructure that made Silicon Valley tick. A big part of that is the venture capital industry here, which isn't so easy to replicate -- especially in places where the concept of risk capital (and, actually, plain old risk itself) isn't quite the same as it is here. Love 'em or hate 'em (or, as is so often the case, both), a flourishing venture capital market has helped to fund a ton of high growth businesses. However, there really aren't many reasons why other areas can't figure it out eventually. China is taking a step in the right direction by changing the laws for venture capitalists in that country, giving those firms the ability to break away from a government that has held them back. This isn't to say that the Chinese VC industry will jump to the forefront, but it is a step forward in a country where there's an awful lot of innovating going on -- often with VC money from back here in Silicon Valley.
