Build a Business, Not a Startup. →

A piece on GigaOm that is not getting enough attention: The thousands of startups today that are pitching themselves at app competitions or in industry conferences all seem to think being a startup is enough.

Why the USA is screwed

Mary Meeker of Kleiner Perkins has published an excellent analysis of the financial condition of the United States. It’s several hundred pages long, but luckily Henry Blodget wrote a summary on Business Insider.
