Times Were Bad, VCs Get Tough; Times Are
Good, VCs Get Tough 05/20/2004 01:05 PM
After 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.

Longhorn Could Be A Tough Sell

Longhorn Could Be A Tough Sell 03/30/2005 04:59 PM

News.com has a huge article this morning about Microsoft’s Windows new operating system being released next year code-named Longhorn. The article makes several points, in a nutshell, here they are. Microsoft has had so many delays with Longhorn that it’s forced them to keep updating the current Windows XP. It’s gotten to the point where XP has become the most stable of any Windows system to date. Several of the new features in Longhorn are supposedly being dropped to get the OS out the door next year. Plus several of Longhorn’s features were or will about to be implemented into Windows XP to handle security problems or feature requests.

Microsoft has handled this problem before. They’ve taken a product that is full featured and contains all the bells and whistles it can possibly contain and made normally intelligent users spend hundreds of dollars on an un-needed upgrade. They call it Office Suite. The article expects Microsoft to hit the PR road later this year and start telling it’s users why Windows XP is not good enough for you. The key will be which features they leave in Longhorn and which are taken out.

washingtonpost.com - Brenda Ellis's day begins at 6:30 a.m., when she rousts her 11-year-old son, Imani, from bed, hustles him into the kitchen for breakfast and to the school bus by 7. Tianna, 13, and Dikia, 17, quickly follow. Then she's off, some days to a substitute-teaching job in Prince George's County, others to tax clinics for the working poor, where she is earning credit for a hoped-for career in accounting.

The Los Angeles Times goes multimedia

The Los Angeles Times goes multimedia 03/21/2003 12:14 AM
The Los Angeles Times goes multimedia. For the past few weeks, the LA Times has begun a significant push into offering video, audio, and interactive Flash on their website. One of the most interesting aspects is that the paper has moved one step beyond simply replaying AP Television clips as many sites have done; the LA Times writers are stand before the cameras and microphones themselves and report stories in a stuttering, non-hairsprayed, introverted demeanor that I find very refreshing, though so far I have gleaned very little additional information from it. When does (or can) this mode of journalism on the web rise above gimmickry or 'just because we can' and add value to a written article? Can video/tv news rise above mere spectacle?
