Google And Venture Capital

Image via CrunchBaseThere is an interesting post at the blog On StartUps by Brad Coffey, an early employee at HubSpot.

He argues that Google might be upto disrupting the venture capital game like it has disrupted many other paradigms and industries. I don't doubt that assertion. The debate is as to what degree and in what ways and for how long.

Arrington, Calm The F____ Down

Yesterday I saw it on TechMeme. There was a link to a blog post by Caterina Fake. I admire her enough that I might have clicked over no matter what she was talking about. This was the first time I was seeing her featured on TechMeme.

I promptly read the post, left a comment, and tweeted it out. Okay, so, Caterina Fake is starting a company. Not surprising at all. I knew she no longer played an active role at Hunch, but I did not realize that meant she had "left," and I am the least interested in the details of that. I'd rather learn about her new company, details of which have not come out yet. I'm sure they will. Over time. I am in no hurry. Like someone said, "the news will find me."

And that was that. I tweeted the blog post and the news was behind me. But no.
