Who needs investors! Why many startups should bootstrap instead

Reblogged from GigaOM:

With 500 Startups Accelerator's new class introduction video and its notorious chant, you can't help but wonder if the current system for funding startups is really the best route to building lasting companies. Some even believe that the funding-centric mindset of startups in Silicon Valley is toxic.

I couldn't agree more. Which is why, other than some modest help, we opted to not pursue investors for our company and go it alone instead.

Hindu Terrorism in India - The Final Solution

Reblogged from Beyond Highbrow - Robert Lindsay:

Reblogged from :

Rick Joyner is under the impression that far-right domestic terrorist Timothy McVeigh was actually a “left-wing extremist” and that “the terrorist attacks that have taken place in this country if they have come from extremists they have come from the left-wing,” which proves that Joyner either knows absolutely nothing about McVeigh and domestic terrorism or is simply lying.

The Present Day Republican Party

Reblogged from Beyond Highbrow - Robert Lindsay:

Yes they control the House thru gerrymandering. That's made them politically relevant.
