<![CDATA[sggrf commented on The Valley's Facebook frenzy fades]]> facebook is fading.

]]>
<![CDATA[sggrf commented on The Valley's Facebook frenzy fades]]> Good idea! It's a really really stupid concept because Facebook is in the words of Steve Ballmer "faddish".

<![CDATA[sggrf commented on Has News Corp. acquired TechCrunch? Everyone's talking about it, but it's not happening]]> he should sell. his little blog may crash if he doesn't hurry!

]]>
<![CDATA[sggrf commented on Is AdBrite coming apart?]]> My guess is that their CEO is in way over his head and that Adbrite will fail. They seem to be losing lots of publishers, too.

]]>
<![CDATA[sggrf commented on Julia Allison's Wired cover -- yes, it's real]]> The valley only dreams of having someone like this walking around:)

]]>
<![CDATA[sggrf commented on Glam.com CEO so pretty in pink]]> Yes, that's it! "G" and Samir have to merge operations. They could be the most powerful duo, in, er, Silicon Valley! These guys have to know each other. However, there is a rumor going around that Samir is about to get *moved* if you know what I mean:)

<![CDATA[sggrf commented on Gurbaksh Chahal to pretend to be poor, learn life lessons in new Fox reality show]]> this guy is awful

]]>
<![CDATA[sggrf commented on Matt Cohler, another member of Mark Zuckerberg's braintrust, leaves Facebook]]> strange move if you think there's a real chance of going public or being bought.

]]>
<![CDATA[sggrf commented on How Jeff Weiner botched the top job at Facebook]]> Zuckerburg is out for sure but why hire Jeff Weiner? Yahoo is a FAILURE! Why would anyone hire someone that failed to run a company that has a chance of suceeding?

]]>
<![CDATA[sggrf commented on $35 million round wasn't enough for RockYou]]> sounds more like they know there isn't a viable business model anywhere on the horizon so they want as much money as possible in order to hold on till they figure something out. Yikes!

]]>
<![CDATA[sggrf commented on Stewart Butterfield's bizarre resignation letter to Yahoo]]> I get it. He's a tool!

]]>
<![CDATA[sggrf commented on Esther Dyson: Online advertising will "turn good people into prostitutes"]]> It's baffling that ANYONE listens to this person. She has accomplished exactly *nothing* in her career!

]]>
<![CDATA[sggrf commented on After Google-Yahoo: Microsoft-YuMe]]> Oh yeah, YUME is just tearing it up! They are one humdinger of a company! Yeehaw!

]]>
<![CDATA[sggrf commented on Michael Arrington drops the banhammer on the Associated Press]]> Mr. Arrington will quickly realize that no one will be following him even though the AP is an absolutely horrible organization.

]]>
<![CDATA[sggrf commented on Rolling Stone's Mark Zuckerberg bio -- the 100-word version]]> There have been more than a few great Internet success stories but I can not think of another that has been plagued by so many legal tussles so early on. Can anyone else? This really seems unprecedented.

]]>
<![CDATA[sggrf commented on Rolling Stone's Mark Zuckerberg bio -- the 100-word version]]> There is something really weird about all these lawsuits. Is it possible that this guy is actually a crook?

]]>
<![CDATA[sggrf commented on Google menaces blog over publishing YouTube contract]]> Google's just showing their true colors here. I applaud SAI for posting the legal letter and embarrassing this attorney and Google. They should be ashamed for sending out legals letter about such trivial matters. I bet that lots of web site owners have received similar letters.

]]>
<![CDATA[sggrf commented on Finding the worst-entry level job in tech: Round Two]]> my guess is the turnover is horrible at both techcrunch and mahalo

]]>
<![CDATA[sggrf commented on Who will replace Jeff Weiner at Yahoo?]]> I cannot imagine that the Icahn fight will in any way affect their hiring practices --- sounds like more Arrington BS to me. This guy has little credibility IMHO.

]]>
<![CDATA[sggrf commented on Marissa Mayer's new Google logo bears striking similarity to Garth Brooks album cover]]> Holy confusion! Garth's law firm oughta send out a nasty legal letter asap!

]]>
<![CDATA[sggrf commented on Gurbaksh "G" Chahal spotted with blonde on arm, fooling no one]]> will anyone ever fund this guy again?

]]>
<![CDATA[sggrf commented on Pick your career poison: Part-time Mahalo guide vs. Pete Cashmore's personal assistant]]> both are compelling if you're not very serious about: 1) making money, and 2) learning how the web works.

]]>
<![CDATA[sggrf commented on Pick your career poison: Part-time Mahalo guide vs. Pete Cashmore's personal assistant]]> very compelling either way

]]>
<![CDATA[sggrf commented on Facebook wants developers to build for boring but profitable enterprise market]]> Right Michael---

I think companies will use social tools and sites, just not from Facebook. You can usually only be great at one thing. Facebook is great at organizing people pages for entertainment and communications purposes. They are NOT now going to appeal to enterprise users. I think some site we've yet to hear about will take on this sector.

]]>
<![CDATA[sggrf commented on Facebook wants developers to build for boring but profitable enterprise market]]> Sheryl is abolutely dreaming if she thinks corporate america is going to work with Facebook in any meaningful way. I know you're all desperate to find a way to justify your valuation but ANYTHING corporate won't get you there. Good try, though!

]]>
<![CDATA[sggrf commented on Michael Arrington reviews gadget without actually using it]]> This guy has zero credibility. The fact that some people actually read what he writes is beyond me.

]]>
<![CDATA[sggrf commented on TechCrunch's Erick Schonfeld to unleash world's worst startup pitches on the rest of us]]> This is one of the many problems with Michael Arrington and TC. They don't want to write the stories, they want to be the story. They don't really want to help elevate great start-ups, they want to be a great start-up themselves. Did you notice that this announcement didn't have one of those inane Crunchbase modules referencing Vator? They don't want to elevate their competition because their integrity is questionable. I like AlleyInsider much better than TC.

<![CDATA[sggrf commented on VC Dennis Miller doesn't envy Ning and Brightcove's investors]]> His comments are not at all self-serving:)

]]>
<![CDATA[sggrf commented on Twitter's real scaling problem revealed]]> With all this talking about it they could've re-written the entire application.

<![CDATA[sggrf commented on Angry investors: Yahoo turned down Microsoft offer of $40 a share in 2007]]> Totally agree that Yahoo is a very sad case and that this will not end nicely for them. The party is over!

]]>
<![CDATA[sggrf commented on Gurbaksh "G" Chahal, the millionaire Yahoo sellout, on "confidence vs. arrogance"]]> this guy is the single worst person in all of silicon valley! Here, here, he's just been nominated as such. Hey ValleyWag --- can you set up an event that tries to pick the worst person in Silicon Valley? I think that would be fun.

]]>
<![CDATA[sggrf commented on Angry investors: Yahoo turned down Microsoft offer of $40 a share in 2007]]> Yahoo is going to be sued by many many shareholders. It serves them right. Aren't they the ones to troll around the web threatening little web companies with their patent portfolio? You gotta love it!

]]>
<![CDATA[sggrf commented on Facebook's new profile: "Orwellian"]]> Rumor has it that Facebook's platform needs a total re-write, which is why they need all the cash they raised --- to throw servers at an unwieldy monster.

]]>
<![CDATA[sggrf commented on IAC's Jason Rapp ends months of career purgatory at Gifts.com]]> this may actually prove to be his punishment:)

]]>
<![CDATA[sggrf commented on The $1.3 billion Glam scam]]> You rarely see a CEO with such credibility issues functioning at this level in this industry. His investors must cringe each time he erupts.
