The whole notion of a company trying to make money from selling software makes me sick. The concept of LAMP (Linux, Apache, MySql, PHP) VS. Microsoft must change. Can someone please tell me which company is spending more on hardware, software, license, hosting, traffic, storage, and support, MySpace or Facebook? I rest my case.

Some people ask me about the difference between a coach and a mentor.

I started my first company in 1999 and was admittedly swept up in all of this: Magazine covers, fancy conferences, artificial valuations and easy money. Between 2006–2008 I sold both companies that I had started and became a VC. So now our collective companies are worth less. How’s that advice holding up? The tide has gone out.

A very big thanks to Alexandra Harris, the founder of FanCause , a company that aims to connect entertainment brands with their fans to raise money. Thomas and his partner lived off of credit cards, and used crappy data centers and open source software (LAMP). Sounds like a noble cause. Hope you all enjoy.
