Quickbooks: the missing link for small
business Linux
12/19/2004 03:46 PM
Last week I was talking with a small business IT consultant who switches clients' servers to Linux (and Samba) all day long without any problems, but finds few clients interested in moving their desktops to Linux. The reason? "QuickBooks," he said. While there are many small business accounting packages that happily run on Linux, including GnuCash, Quasar, SQL-Ledger, and AccPac, QuickBooks dominates this market. And its loyal users don't want to switch to another package even if it's just as good as -- or possibly better than -- QuickBooks.

Startups Learn To Do More With Less...
For Now
04/27/2004 04:38 AM
One of the worst parts about the dot com bubble was that startups were bringing in much more cash than they needed, and it often made them careless with their money. When a company is in startup mode, it's often good to have them be a little tight on cash, as it can actually lead to more creative solutions, while keeping the company focused. It appears that's happening these days as more startups are learning to ma ke smaller amounts of cash last longer. Of course, recently, the VCs started opening up the vaults (which are still quite full), so it's likely that we may see some more crazy fundings - and this is likely to be followed up with crazy spending. For all the lessons learned about not squandering cash, many will disappear when cash is actually present.

Startups Line Up to Take On Google

A crop of new technologies designed to produce more sophisticated search results is challenging Google's market leader position. Eurekster, the brainchild of Grant Ryan, offers users "personalized" responses based on how long they perused various Web sites the last time they performed a similar search. The idea is, if someone finds a particular result valuable, it floats up to the top of the list on the next search. That same site may figure prominently in results delivered to designated friends of the original searcher as well. Ryan's next plan is to market a more specialized product -- search engines designed for particular topics, such as fly-fishing, which could then be installed on the Web site of a tackle shop. "You'll be able to have different views of the Internet," says Ryan. Other challengers are targeting geographically localized searches in their efforts to personalize results. A recent survey by Kelsey Group and BizRate found that 25% of online buyers were seeking merchants near their home or work. And Groxis Inc. is taking a different tack by adding value to the Google's search results through its Grokker search organization software. Grokker takes Google's results and categorizes them into groups displayed on the screen as bubbles. Click on a bubble and it expands to reveal the next layer of relationships between search terms. The search market is "going to evolve away from search engines to answer engines," says SearchDay editor Chris Sherman.

VCs Back To Funding Actual Startups


VCs Back To Funding Actual Startups 07/27/2004 11:14 AM
It looks like venture capitalists are finally willing to actually bet a little of that money they've been hoarding on actual startups. Rather than focusing just on C-round and higher deals, last quarter more than 30% of the deals went to "early stage" companies. This seems to match with what most people in the startup world have been saying lately. Of course, the VCs are still complaining that they actually have to compete for deals these days, but it's about time they realized that if everyone else in the world has to compete, so should they.
