5,273 | null | comment | jamongkad | 1,174,439,377 | I could'nt agree more ;) having a team, especially a good team is very important for a start up. The reason I think it's common on multiple channels cuz it's the most important thing imho. I agree that there are some chapters in "Good to Great" that are not exactly applicable to startups. But maybe I can extract a few ... | null | 5,194 | null | null | null | null | null | null | null |

There's no point in creating Internet-based software. Think about it! Unless you've already know somebody at AOL or Compuserve you'll never get anywhere. What you think you can start your own BBS and compete with the big guys? It'll never work, there's no way...

5,280 | null | comment | reitzensteinm | 1,174,443,100 | What I don't understand is why they aren't letting these sit side by side Adsense and Google.com ads. It wouldn't be hard to figure out a profit per display metric, although it would need one or two order of magnitudes more displays to calculate. Maybe it will once it's out of beta?<p>It surprises me that they didn't h... | null | 5,251 | null | null | null | null | null | null | null |

5,282 | null | comment | drop19 | 1,174,443,428 | I work with people who mostly do not have a startup mindset, or even a work-for-yourself mindset, and I think my creativity had been suffering until I took it upon myself to be proactive. In my experience so far, anything you can do to spend more time around entrepreneurial people will help.

5,290 | null | comment | reitzensteinm | 1,174,444,804 | To put that in perspective, 5% interest would have netted just over $70k, 8% around $220k and 10% $450k. Absolutely insane. | null | 5,245 | null | null | null | null | null | null | null |
5,289 | null | comment | reitzensteinm | 1,174,444,005 | It wouldn't be a problem if that 0.02% was evenly distributed across all advertisers, but I really doubt that is the case and it's the edge cases that make the news, cause lawsuits and damage Google's reputation.<p>An example I'm personally familiar with, at www.iamfacingforeclosure.com a few visitors banded together a... | null | 5,272 | null | null | null | null | null | null | null |

5,285 | null | comment | ericwaller | 1,174,443,538 | Hopefully the concept of the web as a data source will push more content creators toward open content licenses (or at least more openness toward their content), even making it a requirement for those who wish to be competitive at all.

5,287 | null | comment | eli | 1,174,443,911 | Seems rather speculative. <p>I don't think Google really wants to get into the national infrastructure business, but then again I suppose they are looking into free WiFi... <p>Of course, last I heard that free WiFi plan actually wasn't going very well due to some political issues. | null | 5,192 | null | null | null | null | null | null | null |
5,292 | null | comment | turingcomplete | 1,174,445,148 | So would it be possible for say, Amazon.com to define their action as the purchase of some esoteric food product? They'd get the benefit of all the page views, but would only have to pay the ransom on the 0.01% of users who buy Amazon milk.

5,293 | null | comment | ericwan | 1,174,445,184 | Interesting post. The ultimate startup school is to really get your hands dirty by joining a startup. It gave a sense of what it'd be like if he's going to build his own startup, and a chance to decide if that's something he really wants.
