Startups with No Revenue Model dominate TechCrunch50 Event in San Francisco in 2009

It feels like it is 1999 again! The TechCrunch 50 event was held this week (September 14-15) at the San Francisco Design Center. It promised to be the biggest tech event of the year. Instead, it was a horrible flop. The VCs and even the pundits have become jaded and confused about determining what exactly is a good startup and what is a bad one. At this year’s TechCrunch50 2009, there were few surprises and many disappointments. The people, this time, have voted with their stomachs and pressure from hecklers rather than with their heads.

Cupertino City Council Race 2009 heats up

It has been a while since I have written an article here on the Cupertino Daily, but the upcoming race for Cupertino City Council has rekindled excitement in our city. No, I’m not going to run again for Cupertino City Council. Having run twice, I have grown weary, tired, and perplexed with local politics in Cupertino. I invite each candidate to post their thoughts on the Cupertino Daily to reach readers and voters in our city in an objective and non-salesmanship like tone. I also invite local Cupertino residents, groups, and supporters to send to me their thoughts and contribute position papers/articles on why they support their candidates and what issues they believe are the most pressing for our wonderful and diverse city. I will attempt to post these articles on the Cupertino Daily with minimal edit to provide the best clarity of the author’s voice.
