Boot Camp Digital helps small and large companies dive into Web 2.0. Boot Camp Digital founder Krista Neher came to Cincinnati from Toronto in 2005 after being transferred here by Procter & Gamble for her finance and marketing job. A few years later, she left the company to become VP of Marketing for local internet startup Photrade.com. That company was eventually sold and Neher lost her job, leaving her unsure about what she wanted to pursue.
"After the company was sold I didn't know what I wanted to do next. I'd gotten a few local job offers, but I turned them down because I needed some time to think about it," Neher, who lives in Over-the-Rhine, said. In the meantime Neher devoted her time blogging about a new passion: social media on The Marketess. About two years ago, her path found her. "Someone reading the blog said, 'Hey you really understand social media well, can we hire you at P&G? '" So she went back to work for her former company, this time as a consultant.
"I ended up working with them for quite a while," she said. Required reading - a definitive guide to new media and marketing blogs - Syndicating Brian Solis. Mushroom Shelf Tutorial! I'm ever so sorry for putting this tutorial off for so long! Alas, I was nudged into action by a reader who had been patiently waiting for this since my first mushroom shelf post back in December (yikes! I'm so sorry!) Please accept my most sincere apologies and lets do just jump right into this!
One's active participation in this tutorial is rather dependent on access to suitable mushroom specimens, and while I regret that I'm unable to offer any specific advice on where to go looking, do just keep a keen eye in the trees (up and down the trunks, specifically) the next time you are out on a ramble through a forested area, and your diligence may well be rewarded. The correct sort of mushroom (there are actually a handful of different varieties that work) is typically espied growing from the trunks of trees that appear ill of health, or perhaps even dead, however there are never any guarantees of finding the mushrooms.
It is now time to trim your mushroom shelf. Done! Almost done! How Manhattan Nightlife Has Become Synonymous With Its Hotels. With or without an official nightclub, the experience that these hotels offer is essentially about human contact. “It’s the single thing that can’t be duplicated on the Internet,” says MacPherson. “Social networking tries to, but it’s not the same thing. You can get your music, all your entertainment on the Net, but you cannot get lucky except in the flesh.” Ian Schrager is sitting at a huge wooden conference table in his office in the West Village, surrounded by piles of tear sheets from magazines: bits of design inspiration. All of the other hoteliers tip their hats to Schrager for pulling hotels out of those beige, boxy doldrums. But Schrager is now rejecting the very aesthetic he created. To that end, Schrager has gone into partnership with J.
What’s Really Going on in the VC Industry? What Does it Mean for Startups? Lots of discussion these days about the changes in the VC industry. Here’s my take: 1. The VC industry grew dramatically as a result of the Internet bubble - Before the Internet bubble the people who invested in VC funds (called LPs or Limited Partners) put about $50 billion into the industry and by 2001 this had grown precipitously to around $250 billion. 2. But VC is an “illiquid asset” so funds didn’t disappear quickly - In 2000/01 the stock market quickly adjusted punishing investors in the NASDAQ and in individual public technology stocks. Consumers pulled their money out of these risky investments, but when LPs make commitments to VC funds they make 10-year, legally binding commitments. So as of 2008 total LP commitments were still at nearly $250 billion. 3. So the people who invest in VC funds have two problems.
The second problem is more troubling. VC will shrink. 4. The best and most consistent funds in Silicon Valley (e.g. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10. 11. 12. 13. 14. 15. 16. Strobist - Best Blogs of 2010. New Media Business Models. [Updated] The Coming Super-Seed Crash. Unnoticed by almost no-one, the startup financing landscape has been transformed: a combination of ease of entry, lower capital requirements, failing incumbent venture capital (VC) firms, and general fervor has driven the emergence of a host of new “super-seed” firms. These small-ish outfits — usually running less than $20m — specialize in seeding a bazillion companies, following on in very few, and generally trying to be fast-moving and networked. Now, however, the super-seed crash is coming. We have silly numbers of companies being seeded — I had someone at a well-known, larger venture fund tell me yesterday in San Francisco that they were seeing dozens of Series A-seeking newly angel-funded companies a week.
Valuations are escalating as super-seeding angels compete against one another, while fourth-quartile incumbent VCs jack prices to buy deals through dint of having more money to put to work. Of course, this doesn’t mean that the super-seed model is all wrong. Related posts:
