that started it all. Rest in Peace

As usual, our eminent blogger superstarts have started beating the drum. They are high on adrenaline, and i am sure slideshare is going to see massive traffic today, courtsy arringtons, marshalls and their “dear friends”. I wish they could give a thought on what these slides say, and then write a story instead of spreading propaganda and foolishly jumping to conclusions. Innovation is always to stay. If your idea is real good, it will still work. If it just another AJAX+social network+sharing+music+widgets, it is bound to fail. That’s common sense. Nothing more, nothing less. It was greed that was prevalent in past few years. Greed, endowed by VCs who always went, “aah! i missed google and facebook this close, but its still time to fund replicas! They might get it big!”. Funding companies with absolute zero business models was the practice that did the RIP part on the skull. Sequoia’s message is simple. Get something real instead of false promises.
