And none of them try to lock customers, partners or decision makers from going away in any underhanded way, right? Just pure offer-the-best-and-they-will-stick-with-us. And if someone does it better than us and takes…
This is great observation and speculation on what could happen and where would it come from. I've had multiple conversations with top-10 VC firm partners during our unsuccessful pitches where one of the sticking points…
Don't forget the board. Its their responsibility to oversee the executive team. A deal this size/strategic was likely discussed at board level. All those VCs trying to change the world... for the better! /s
Benchmark, DAG & Lightspeed... all Valley VCs.
Yet another shiny example of money vs. ethics in the Valley. Also, don't look towards the engineers, who may or may not have known. Look towards the money. Who are the VCs invested in them and how many of them knew and…

And NimbleRx, which seemingly is still around, but not listed in any official or unofficial list. With the recent reviews these guys are getting, are they really around?
There is only one page. The community-created one. As a business, we never created one. If you google "yelp $business", you can find this page today. If you go to yelp.com and search for "$business", it used to be…
This absolutely does happen. I have a small business that is facing it right now. I either pay the Yelp tax or they have taken our community-created page with all 5-star reviews completely off the site. Can still find…
For me the big issue is Mark insisting on holding on to the case that this was a good investment. Last time he insisted on calling out the non-believers about tech. This time, he only writes a couple sentences defending…
