Start Up Services Snake Oil
Nov 29, 9:33PM
I’ve been so well entrenched in the journalistic world of entrepreneurship that I haven’t lifted my head out of the mess of funding stories and launch posts to actually pay attention to what is happening in the world of startups. Here’s the rub: when you’re starting a company it’s almost impossible to get good people. You can ask your cousin to make a few PSDs… Read MoreThe End Of The Startup Gold Rush, Absurd Burn Rates And Tourist VCs
Nov 29, 8:00PM
In 15 years as a venture capitalist, I’ve seen just about every market condition you can imagine. I started at Insight Venture Partners in 2000 at a time when the stock market was experiencing historic highs and tech companies were receiving massive private and public valuations. Capital markets were flush, startup burn rates were rampant, and the gold rush was on. Investors came out… Read MoreAmazon Shows Off New Prime Air Drone With Hybrid Design

Amazon delivered a lovely update on its ‘Prime Air’ project today — almost exactly two years after it showed the first iteration of its drone.

Nov 29, 6:44PM
In the beginning, there were three. There was Leap Transit, the Andreessen Horowitz-backed bus startup stocked with Blue Bottle Coffee and furnished with plush stool seating for morning and evening commuters.

Nov 29, 6:00PM
Social media has been playing an increasingly critical role in political elections. The 2008 presidential election, dubbed the “Facebook Election,” was the first time voters could view and share debates, interviews, commercials and statements on-demand. 2012 saw the evolution continue with Barack Obama utilizing social platforms to not just distribute his message, but actually… Read MoreLi-Fi Probably Won't Be The New Wi-Fi For Most People
Nov 29, 5:30PM
Long restricted to the academic domain, Li-Fi, a light-based data delivery method is suddenly getting all sorts of attention. An Estonian startup Velmenni recently tested an commercial implementation and found it to be superior to Wi-Fi in almost every way – except as something you and I will probably ever use. Velmenni’s technology, called Jungru, uses an LED bulb and transmits… Read More11 Actual "Rooms" For Rent In SF That Are More Than Your Midwestern Mortgage
Nov 29, 5:22PM
Let’s be honest, every apartment for rent in San Francisco is more than the average Midwestern mortgage. An ordinary 35-44-year-old homeowner in the U.S. hands over about $1,073 per month for their house payment, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics. The SF average for a one bedroom apartment is nearly three times that, at $2965 per month. Of course, the high rent has much to… Read MoreThe Future Of Trans*H4CK
Nov 29, 5:00PM
Despite his degree, Ziegler said he had a hard time finding a job as a black trans man. “I finished school at 29, and spent all these years at school and then struggled with transgender discrimination in a way that I had never, ever before,” Ziegler told me over coffee at Oakland’s Awaken Cafe, located just down the street from where he hosted the first-ever Trans*H4CK.… Read MoreCalling All Hardware Junkies!

Nov 29, 2:30PM
GoTenna co-founder Daniela Perdomo knows that her startup has been “quiet for a long time,” but she said it’s for a good reason — the team has been busy turning its prototype into something that could be “manufactured at scale.” The company aims to help users to communicate even when they don’t have any cell signal, whether it’s because… Read MoreDon't Compare Blue Origin's Success to SpaceX's Failures
Nov 29, 2:30PM

After Blue Origin’s successful test many suggested that SpaceX, who is working on their own reusable orbital rocket, was falling behind. Read MoreHow Tech Titans Know To Pull The Plug On Projects
Nov 29, 3:00AM
Not every new idea is destined to be great. Sometimes even the most promising concepts end up in the scrap pile. You probably never heard about Google Here, but the project was so big that Alphabet CEO Larry Page himself made the final decision to abandon it. Aimed at smartphone users, Here would have allowed companies to interact with users by location. For instance, someone in a Gap… Read MoreHow Education Will Be Smarter, Less Intrusive, And Able To Respond To How You Feel
Nov 29, 1:00AM

We are on the verge of a tide of… Read MoreLegal Streaming: Build Your Audience Without Getting GG'ed

Nov 28, 9:16PM
While a lot of the US was out and about shopping for themselves or others for the holidays, Cards Against Humanity ran their own Black Friday campaign, asking for $5 and in return the buyer would get nothing. Nada. Zip. And the buyers (all 11,248 of them) LIKED it. Today, the team shared that they’d made a grand total of $71,145 in one day and let us in on what they would be buying… Read MoreUberChopper Brings Desperately Needed Excess To Abu Dhabi Grand Prix
Nov 28, 8:02PM
Today, as you nurse your wounds from Black Friday stampedes outside your local mall, or sit in traffic as you make your lengthy travel back home from the holidays, here’s a reminder that life doesn’t have to be so hard.

Nov 28, 7:18PM
When the news broke in early October that Dell was planning on buying EMC for a whopping $67 billion, more than a few jaws dropped (including mine), but in the weeks since, reports have surfaced about multiple problems from tax issues to VMware’s plunging stock price and the post-deal creation of Virtustream.
