LIVE-IN STARTUPS COMBINE FRAT-HOUSE CULTURE WITH VENTURE CAPITAL

There’s lots to be admired about Silicon Valley…the innovation, the productivity, the palpable sense of progress, and I for one would love to have had the opportunity to spend time there (still would).

Hi Grandma and Grandad

More experiments with Hellodeo.com…this ones for Grandma and Grandad from Flynn.

Jason Calacanis made some remarks on his blog eons ago that [...]

Google Adsense Ads Images
