The title of this blog
It was really hot and I had the air-conditioner blasting. I forgot to turn it off, so there's background noise in this video. I apologize!

In these videos I answer questions relating to my startup. There are three videos posted here:
1. The startup concept
2. Why I'm starting a company
3. Am I looking for funding
I found this picture on http://objectsworld.blogspot.com/ and absolutely love it. People like to discuss the perils of being too young or too old or too female, etc., but obviously some entrpereneurs just make it happen.
By the way, they had two women on this very early team? I'm impressed. The women look like they mean business for sure.
I found a curious video of Michael Arrington of Techcrunch and several startup CEOs discussing what Web 3.0 may be.
Found this very interesting tidbit at Mark Fletcher's WingedPig.com:

As an employee climbing the corporate ladder at a company, it's all about getting more. More responsibility, more control, a larger salary, a bigger title. However, the exact opposite is true when you start a company. A big part of starting and building a company is about giving up. A founder is in a weird position. When you first start a company, everything is yours. You own all the stock, you make all the decisions. This point of creation is the only time this will be the case, however. Forever after, the founder must give up more and more control to other people and more and more ownership to employees, investors, etc. The founder must do this for the company to be successful, but at the same time this is the opposite of what many people are used to doing.
Very smart man, this Mark Fletcher is.
