The relationship between VCs and their portfolio companies has changed significantly over the past five or so years. In many ways it is still the same, in that VCs provide capital, then take a significant equity stake and often a board seat. However, as the funding process has become more transparent and new capital sources have emerged, startups are looking for more value from their… Read More 
Looks like investors approve of former Adobe digital chief David Wadhwani. Just weeks after it was announced that Wadhwani has joined seven-year-old, San Francisco-based AppDynamics as its new CEO, an SEC filing shows the company has raised a fresh $83.4 million in funding as part of a round that’s targeting up to $150 million. AppDynamics makes software to monitor the performance… Read More 
Mired as we are in earnings season, I was slightly remiss this week in keeping tabs on Windows 10, Microsoft’s new operating system. A few things happened that are worth our time, and, as it’s the weekend, we have the minutes. First up, Microsoft detailed how it will continue to encourage — force? — users up from Windows 7 and 8 to Windows 10. Here’s the… Read More 
The Gillmor Gang — Robert Scoble, Kevin Marks, Keith Teare, and Steve Gillmor. Recorded live Friday, October 30, 2015. The Gang reconvenes with talk of Republicans, notifications, Web standards, Jack Dorsey, Marissa Mayer, and Apple TV. Plus, the latest G3 with Halley Suitt Tucker, Mary Hodder, Francine Hardaway, Tina Chase Gillmor, and guest Lisa Lang. Read More 
To paraphrase an oft seen Internet trollism, ‘Internet comments are the worst thing since Hitler’. By which I mean: they suck. They suck bad. No, they really suck. The problem we have right now with Internet comments is clear: negativity and nastiness is burying or discouraging everything else. Read More 
Since its commercial birth in the 1950s as a technological oddity at a science fair, gaming has blossomed into one of the most profitable entertainment industries in the world. The mobile technology boom in recent years has revolutionized the industry and opened the doors to a new generation of gamers. Indeed, gaming has become so integrated with modern popular culture that now even grandmas… Read More 
Happy Halloween! Let’s talk about the scariest thing in the tech world today. No, no, not bubbles, drones, or unicorns: Bitcoin. Seriously. (Mostly.) Whether you think it’s a boondoggle scam, a libertarian Trojan horse that threatens governments, the scourge of Wall Street, or the thin edge of the post-capitalist wedge, you face two scary prospects: what if you’re right?… Read More 
Somehow we missed “privacy” from the initial constitutional design and amendments thereafter. This “right” was not endowed to us by our Founding Fathers, and does not make up the conscience of our jurisprudence system of government today. As the most recent heinous breaches have taught us around the world, losing one’s privacy means also to lose one of… Read More 
No longer content to just being the ubiquitous source of information of all kinds for the typical college student, Google is now trying to be the platform that friends use to plan their next hangout. As 9To5Google reported earlier today, the company launched an app called ‘Who’s Down’ on the Apple App Store and Google Play Store this morning. Ostensibly a tool that allows… Read More 
I believe it’s paramount that in an increasingly digitized world you, as a proactive consumer, learn what exactly companies are doing with your data – and how to rate them on it, just like you rate a hotel on Trip Advisor or a product on Amazon. If they don’t have a passing grade, don’t give them your data! Read More 
Uber, Lyft and other ride-hailing services have been with us for several years now. What began as a convenient novelty to replace traditional taxi and limo services soon became a standard commute for many people. Commentators and company executives caught on to the paradigm shift and have begun issuing provocative statements such as, “Hey! You no longer need to own a car.” Read More 
Hello, comrades of the revolution, and welcome back to CrunchWeek, TechCrunch’s weekly roundup of all things noteworthy. This week our fearless leader, Matthew Lynley, was joined by Sarah Buhr and myself. We took a long look at earnings — especially Apple’s simply massive scale — the partial quashing of the ADP-Zenefits beef, and, of course, Facebook’s plan to… Read More 
500 Startups today presented its 14th batch of companies at the Computer History Museum in Mountain View, California, with a spooky twist. Dave McClure said this batch was less international than previous batches, with only 39% of founders hailing from outside the United States. Of the 36 startups that went through the program, 25% had female founders. He made no mention of people of color.… Read More 
Startup Monclarity announced today that it has raised $5 million in seed funding from Access Industries. And it recently unveiled Brainwell, a brain-training app available on iOS, Android, Kindle and the web. Now, there’s been a lot of skepticism around brain-training games like Lumosity, particularly after a recent study of the existing research found that these games may improve… Read More 
The Title III regulations, which I wrote about earlier, are now a reality… so cry havoc and unleash the crowdfunding marketplaces. Read More 
HUDWAY is a piece of glass that turns any smartphone into a heads-up display on the front of your car. The device beams information from your phone to a thin layer of curved glass mounted to the front of any dashboard for turn-by-turn navigation and phone messages. We hear of the poor fool who lost their life because they were texting or looking at their phone while driving all the time. Read More 
Outside of the deals they give students and the occasional Black Friday hook up, Apple isn’t exactly known for throwing around discounts. So here’s a wild one: Apple is experimenting with giving people $50 discounts on Apple Watches if they buy one at the same time as a new iPhone 6s or 6s Plus. Read More 
Most kids love Halloween. Most kids also love video games. Put the two together, and you’re going to be the king of your neighborhood (if only for a night). That’s exactly what Rich Fiore did, turning the side of his house into an interactive, Haunted House-themed shooter. Read More

There’s a coming scrum that will involve all the major Internet giants, and the stakes are just being set now. It’s a fight for video footprint; specifically for off-network video distribution and monetization. And it has heated up significantly over the past year, driven by a handful of expensive acquisitions and internal build-outs. Read More
