Making Something From Nothing This may be on of the best post's of the new year ! From Mr Fred Wilson "That's a fundamental difference and we cannot ever lose sight of this fact. Nothing costs nothing. We don't have to pay for our ideas, imagination, and hard work we put into turning nothing into something. Well to be exact, the entrepreneur doesn't have to pay for any of those things. The VC does pay for those things and gets a piece of the ride from nothing to something as a result.!" January 1, 2009 Fred Wilson Add to it this look up article from Dave Winer on helping friend feed http://www.scripting.com/ In one of my reblogs I added some thoughts regarding giving free help to Friendfeed Mr Wilson says it better nothing cost's nothing !

It was noted on Fred Wilson's site-http://www.avc.com/ Barry Graubert writes the excellent Content Matters blog and he's got an interview with me up there today. Fred Wilson Here is one question and my answer: CM: Historically, as the economy comes out of recession, it creates transformation and change. Which segments have the potential for transformation in an eventual recovery? FW: Every industry that is based on knowledge or information or some other form of non-physical matter (atoms vs bits) is going to fundamentally transform and this downturn will be the darwinian forcing function.

Seth's Blog: Take the ball and go home Image representing Zemanta as depicted in Crun... Image via CrunchBase I sent this to my Tubmlr Theme http://msandler.tumblr.com/ with Posterous this morning . Then more I read this post I decided to do a re-blog with Zemanta When I first decided to reblog a few years ago I always asked permission from the original Content creators. Most people who are professional don't mind giving you permission ! I got Banned from Mahalo and Friend feed , but with Mahalo they extended a lot of courtesy and exlpained their Policy with a personal e mail Friendfeed who has someone in the UK Drowning in Guiness sent me a Tweet On Twitter calling me a spammer ! As you will notice on my site that Techburgh is rebuilding there are no advertisments! At 72 years old I don't not accept apologies or thank you's so i could not tell the Lad in the UK to S@@@ himself ! You can critisize me all day long ! Now I have some great friends who are Teche's and when I need help there are very kind-like Dr Lev Seletor and His Son Alexsy a student at cooper union http://www.selectorweb.com/ Jason Broadwater http://revenflo.com/ Joe Orr http://www.nycircuits.com/ All the Above have done work for me on other projects and are bright and kind ! I also have been reading http://www.avc.com/ I am a great fan of Adaptive Glue that Mr Wilson's firm has a investment in- Glue A great Firefox Add on and a real live Tech Support Crew ! Now lets get back to Seth Godin ! His content creation's are a model for content creation and fact check ! Seth Godin Fred Wilson Frank Elliason Steve Rubel have set the curve !

I like Louis Gray's take on the new forms of Digital Media ! First I must explain my personal position I was kicked off Friend Feed for posting a Re-blog about Edelman Digital in the Wrong Room no warning one of their employees was complaining about my post's to another employee not to me ! Another from the UK sent me a Tweet saying I was a spammer ! My account was then without addressing the issue to me deleted , this to me is ok I am still alive but this is not a tactfull way of building a business ! Obviously only Geeks who communicate with machines not people are FriendFeeds Market ! Now I am 72 years old and am sure have more business and marketing experience in my little red wagon then the folks at Friend Feed ! They have built an excellent visual application and developed a following but they have and it is obvious no marketing direction ! Understand they have right to pick and acknowledge a client base but to survive their application needs a Universal Appeal us the unwashed not a Snob Appeal !

« @Firefox_Answers & @ComcastCares--a lopsided comparison | Main August 24, 2008 I'm Speaking in China. Why this Excites me. I'm reading Nixon and Mao by Margaret MacMillan. Until the year 2000, Nixon was my least favorite president, but as I read this recounting of his 1972 trip to what we then called "Red China," I cannot help but acknowledge the greatness of what he achieved by being the first US president to set foot in China. It really was a trip that changed the world. I recall the controversy of the time. Some TV reporter--either Dan Rather or Sam Donaldson--stuck a microphone in front of Henry Kissinger, Nixon's closest adviser and secretary of state who had engineered the trip."Mr. Secretary," he was asked, "what does the United States expected to gain out of this China junket?" The implication was that the trip was nothing but political PR. Many of us suspected that it was no more than a stunt.
