Friendly Intelligence – April 13, 2008
“I am a slacker baby, so why dont you kill me?”
Ok, I am paraphrasing Beck, but I havent written this post in a couple of weeks. Yes, I am a slacker. To make up for it, I got several:
Announcing the iWear Fund – Brad is a funny guy. Sometimes.
Frontier Airlines, The Greyhound of the Sky – My friend Matt wrote this long before Frontier declared bankruptcy. It seems that their customer service backruptcy finally met their financial bankruptcy. I hate that airline with a passion. True story: Met a woman at a club and everything was going extrememly well (read: Micah was going to get some!) until she told me she was a flight attendant for Frontier. After a quick diatribe on why I hate that airline, her interest waned. C’mon, like there is any wonder as to why I am still single?
I drink Mahalo’s Milkshake – Christina, who literally disappears, except for her boobs, when she turns sideways, pounds a milkshake in a clear pander to be considered to be the co-host of Mahalo Daily now that Veronica Belmont is leaving. Personally, her intelligence, energy and humor should make it a slam dunk, but we are talking about Jason Calacanis after all…
Tango Blue – I have had the pleasure to get to know Paul, who is a member of Lijit’s board, and a long time friend and collegue of our CEO, Todd Vernon. So much about whats written on startups is in the kumbyah beginning stages, that its often hard to think about what happens if you are flat out wrong. Paul writes a post here about the thought process behind pulling the plug on the Zenie Bottle. Read it. Its that good.
Australia’s Powerhouse Museum Joins the Flickr Commons Project – Justin helped bring all the Library of Congress pictures into the Flickr fold, and they are awesome. I expect these to be equally amazing. Nice catch, Justin.
Venture Files Joins Technosailor – Aaron and Steve Fisher (who I hope to get to know one day) have pulled Venture Files into Aaron’s Technosailor blog. Some great stuff there, and, of course, completely searchable through the Lijit widget Aaron has installed. Yes, that was a double plug. Learn it. Love it. Live it.
