Fantastic article about Minneapolis that echoes what +Jennifer Pahlka of @codeforamerica said in her recent TedX Philly talk [video not posted yet] about the importance of cities in dealing with the problems that actually face most citizens:

“City governments are the last standing functional form of government in the United States and possibly the world,” says [Minneapolis Mayor] Rybak, who was 13 when he decided he wanted to be mayor.

I particularly loved this bit in the article:

"there is no Republican or Democratic way to pick up the garbage. And because you have to be able to perform. When somebody calls 911 and needs a police officer, you have to send a police officer. If a water line breaks in front of somebody’s house, it has to be fixed. It isn’t policy, it is doing the work. And that’s what city government is all about."

Of course,city gove... mehr »

Last week I accidentally posted an internal rant about service platforms to my public Google+ account (i.e. this one). It somehow went viral, which is nothing short of stupefying given that it was a massive Wall of Text. The whole thing still feels surreal.

Amazingly, nothing bad happened to me at Google. Everyone just laughed at me a lot, all the way up to the top, for having committed what must be the great-granddaddy of all Reply-All screwups in tech history.

But they also listened, which is super cool. I probably shouldn’t talk much about it, but they’re already figuring out how to deal with some of the issues I raised. I guess I shouldn’t be surprised, though. When I claimed in my internal post that “Google does everything right”, I meant it. When they’re faced with any problem at all, whether it’s technical or organizational or cultural, they set outto solve it i... mehr »

(Sat01) What I Learned From Steve Jobs

Many people have explained what one can learn from Steve Jobs. But few, if any, of these people have been inside the tent and experienced first hand what it was like to work with him. I don’t want any lessons to be lost or forgotten, so here is my list of the top twelve lessons that I learned from Steve Jobs.

Experts are clueless.

Experts—journalists, analysts, consultants, bankers, and gurus can’t “do” so they “advise.” They can tell you what is wrong with your product, but they cannot make a great one. They can tell you how to sell something, but they cannot sell it themselves. They can tell you how to create great teams, but they only manage a secretary. For example, the experts told us that the two biggest shortcomings of Macintosh in the mid 1980s was the lack of a daisy-wheel printer driver and Lotus 1-2-3;another advic... mehr »

Looks like the claim that #ransackgate had never happened b4 will bite AirBnB on the butt. That was clearly unlikely - http://tcrn.ch/oqw8vM

Marc is a good force in our industry and probably a good human being in general, but he's a VC and his statements on the bubble are driven by self-interest.
