OpenSocial and Facebook as Platforms

SoCal CTO

Repeated Expressions

The Programmer's Paradox

I'll apologize in advance. This blog entry gets a little weird, but it is the type of conceptual weirdness that comes directly from the underlying problems. You may have to squint your eyes a bit to get a really fuzzy abstract view of reality in order to understand the basis, but I think that you'll find it is worth the effort. Jumping right in, we start with the notion that users create piles of information that they beat on with their software tools.

Startup Opportunities in SoCal

SoCal CTO

On Ben Kuo's blog, he posted about Entrepreneurs in Southern California and pointed to a post by Will Johnson, a Southern California entrepreneur and blogger. Will's post talks about lack of interest in working for startups here in Southern California, saying: we probably’d don’t have the: a) same support infrastructure (meet-ups, networking events, etc.); b) history of success; and c) abundance of start-up companies (so if one fails there is another to jump on).

The $100K Startup? Changes in VC Land?

SoCal CTO

I've been reading or hearing quite a bit about how startups these days don't take nearly as much capital to create as they used to. What used to cost $1M now takes $100K.
