Has Marc Benioff Been Selling Pre-IPO
Shares In Salesforce.com?
05/14/2004 03:14 PMJust as the press is warming up to the idea of
Salesfo
rce.com's IPO, a reporter has
notic
ed some odd discrepancies in Salesforce's IPO filings suggesting
that perhaps Marc Benioff has been selling off his shares (just as
he's asking the public to buy into them) without making that clear in
the filing. Selling off shares by insiders isn't a terrible thing but
you rarely do it during the IPO (usually people wait) - though, even
the Google IPO notes that insiders will be selling some of their
shares. What's a concern in this case is that it's not at all clear
what's really happening. All that's clear is the numbers don't match
up. If Benioff has been selling shares, then that should be made
clear in the filing as well. I'm not sure this is as serious as the
reporter makes it out to be, but it is something that should be
clarified - especially these days when everyone is so worried about
corporate fraud.

defined CRM as we know it -- is contending with market forces that
ultimately will mean change -- not only for the company, but also for

good at keeping secrets. The company's announcement last month that
Tom Siebel would be stepping down as CEO, replaced by long-time
associate and former IBM (NYSE: IBM) executive Michael Lawrie was
nothing short of a bombshell.

Welcome to our world - Marc
Welcome to our world - Marc
06/22/2005 02:41 AMI've wanted to start a Marc club for a while now - with Mark Cuban,
Marc Andressen, Marc Benioff, Mark Fletcher and any other coolio Marc
we can find. So it is with great warmth that I welcome Marc Andressen
to our world - with his new 24
Hour Laundry product/service.
Unfortunately many
people do
not see his latest efforts as anything more than a desperate
attempt at an oft failed, living in the shadows of his first and only
accomplishment, kind of guy - to get attention by jumping on the
bandwagon of social networking and video blogging.
Well I say "welcome"!
Have fun - now try and monetize those efforts. The world of Web
2.0 demands that you prove yourself. No more 'playing up to the
VCs and investment bankers' - they don't matter anymore. The
only thing that matters is delivering compelling experiences to
end-users and supporting open standards.
As long as 24HL does
that - I'm in favor of it. If not, then oh well. Marc's got other
supporters as well
- he deserves it. He's worked hard - and there's no reason to pick
on him indiscriminately.
And as far as staying stealth - I guess Marc still thinks that
being proprietary and closed is a good thing. Where I come from
that's not a good sign, but let's give Marc the benefit of the doubt -
shall we?
Lots of coolio stuff was in stealth for a while, like Rojo, Odeo,
FM Publishing and even Google uses this technique. So why can't the
inventor of modern day browsers do the same?
Oh and BTW Marc - my company Broadband Mechanics can do these jobs
for you - very effectively - outsourced - for less money than
it would cost you to do it in Silly Valley.

Our expertise is exactly what you're building. And we'll make sure
you're supporting ALL the latest open standards and efforts. So why
not adapt at least one new trend that's evolved since you first got
started - outsourcing?

VOIP: Be Very Afraid
05/05/2004 09:37 AMHere's what Michael Powell
had to say about voice over IP to the main cable industry trade
show:
"If you're a big incumbent and you've
sort of enjoyed a competitive advantage . . . you, in my opinion,
ought
to be terrified."
"I think it's
going to be the very, very best and biggest breakthrough in our
ambitions and dreams about competition ever."
You tell 'em, Mike! Seriously, Powell is dead-on here.
He understands what VOIP represents, and the significance of the
regulatory issues it raises for the FCC. As do the key FCC
staffers, who I talk with periodically.
However, I've been disappointed that Powell's FCC has so far taken
a
nibbling, incremental approach to VOIP. They are still putting
off the hard issues, while addressing what look like easy cases.
In reality, those cases (like the AT&T petition the FCC recently
denied) aren't so easy. And the FCC's tentative, limited
decisions will still be taken as definitive by those in the
marketplace. I'm convinced the FCC is committed to addressing
the
fundamental VOIP policy issues squarely, but that commitment needs to
translate into action.
A good indicator will be how quickly the FCC moves forward, either
through formal decisionmaking or public activities, after the comment
cycle on its major voice over IP proceeding closes at the end of
June.

I love garlic but I love miniture garlic more. What is
miniture garlic?
I am not sure if they are really garlic but they are spicy and has
that piercing and
lingering taste similar to garlic. In Korea, they are called
Dal-lae.
They are sold at Korean markets but only for short period of time
late spring/early
summer. They are hard to prepare too. What you see
above took my wife
an hour.
Best way to eat them is raw with a touch of dressing made with soy
sauce, vinegar,
red pepper, sugar, and sesame oil. Very very delicious if you
like spicy food.
Only downside is that, as with garlic, breathing out calls for
courage.

What The RIAA Is Really Afraid Of: Its
Own Demise
03/30/2005 06:50 AMIt's no secret that the RIAA has been known to
fudge
the numbers to prove their point that file sharing hurts sales.
What was never entirely clear, however, was why they simply
refused to believe any study that
sugge
sted file sharing could help sales. If anyone were interested in
such studies, it should be the RIAA -- because they would show them a
great way to increase sales (which should be their goal). However,
Mark Cuban makes an excellent point about why the RIAA is acting the
way they are, despite these studies. Even if sales are up,
it's not
the sales of RIAA members. Cuban suggests that sales are probably
up, but it's the independent musicians who are making up the
difference, while RIAA member sales are holding steady, or slightly
decreasing. Remember, the RIAA represents the big music labels -- not
the tiny ones. Almost everyone agrees that the real impact of file
sharing is that it spreads the success outward. Rather than just a
few mega-rockstars, you get many more successful musicians. The big
record labels have built their business models on the idea of just a
few mega-rockstars dominating the market. What this means, then, is
that the RIAA members are losing marketshare. It's not overall sales
that are down, it's just that the competition from smaller players is
taking away sales from the big labels -- which is why that coalition
of independent artists is supporting the Grokster side of the case.
If this theory is true (and a lot of the evidence does seem to support
it), then what the RIAA is really fighting about is not saving the
recording industry. It's about saving the RIAA.
