It’s not a new idea to make hay by seizing the messy business opportunities no one else wants. Innovating the distribution of a technology, rather than inventing the technology itself, isn’t novel either. This is the model that made founder Michael Dell a billionaire. Now, San Francisco-based Sungevity is taking a page from Michael Dell’s [...] ... Source: gigaom.com --- 1 day ago

DreamIt Ventures is yet another technology startup incubator, much like Y Combinator and others currently taking up the cause of founders with stars in their eyes. TechCrunch today featured the slate of Startups DreamIt has debuted—check them out. During the tech bubble in the late’90s/ early ‘00s we saw numerous incubators develop and promote a slew of companies, perhaps the most prominent and successful of which was IdeaLab (which is actually still around and produced some successful firms). So, are the companies being incubated by these firms viable, or are we seeing the growth of another bubble? ... Find more results for Startups on RSSMicro.com |

There was interesting talk about venture capitalists and their role in Internet Startups last week. It started with a post by John Casasanta of Taptaptap simply entitled “ Fuck the VCs .” Responses from Hacker News and John Furrier , among others, led to a lot of heated debate over the role and significance of venture capital. Although I clearly cannot provide justice to the topic of venture capital in one or even a thousand articles, I did want to talk about the changing face of venture capital for Internet Startups. Venture capital is a spread-out game with a large cast of players. Angel investors, professional VC firms, incubators, bankers, lawyers, investment funds, and entrepreneurs are all involved in nothing less than a tangled mess. Finding venture capital often takes luck, great networking, or eye-popping credentials, not to mention dedication and a thick skin to streaks of constant failure. You could submit your business plan to a hundred VCs and get a response from ten or from zero depending on when you send, what they’re looking for, and who you know. In other words, it can be a crapshoot for both the VC firm and the entrepreneur. But that model is slowly changing to one that takes out some of that uncertainty and disarray and acts as a filter for venture capitalists to reach good, solid business ideas. The leader of that model is Y Combinator. Y Combinator is altering the game as the university of Internet Startups by ...
The scrappy Broadway musical [title of show] chronicles two guys writing a show about themselves writing the show they're in. Working within this ouroborosly simple framework, the four performers (the creative team and their friends) and single musician on keyboard create a lush environment and motivation for anyone trying to create something -- writing a novel or a blog post, researching a cure for cancer, or developing an internet startup. Jennifer and I watched [title of show] in July and it has been resonating in my brain (and repeating on my iPhone) since. I see parallels between this Broadway production and an internet startup and believe the show has a lot to teach us. ...
