One of the many wonderful things about homeschooling is that I am constantly learning alongside my daughter.
Trade sales are the bulk of exits, and there's no shame in that. Sometimes, it's exactly the right thing to do.
The single thing I've found it valuable to memorize is poetry.
As a child, I learned hundreds of poems by heart, which I can recite to this day.
Dream, struggle, create, prevail. Be daring. Be brave. Be loving. Be compassionate. Be strong. Be brilliant. Be beautiful.
'Apartamento,' a magazine out of Spain but written in English, is one of my favorite magazines.
It makes me happy to meet other poetry fans. Especially when they recommend poets I'm not familiar with.
I'm not good at vacationing. I've repeatedly failed at palapas and mai-tais.
The things I'm good at are building communities, participatory media, places where people contribute things of their own making.
My life project is humanizing technology making technology more real and bringing it back into human interactions.
I've had two IPOs with Etsy in 2015 and Cloudera in 2016. There have also been a ton of trade sales in my portfolio.
When you have a failed pitch, you meet many more venture capitalists than you really want to.
Do not seek prizes that aren't worth getting.
Facebook is a powerful company, yes, but so was IBM.
A co-founder is like being somebody's parent You want to make sure your offspring thrive.
My favorite online communities are characterized by their incredible generosity.
The children of less effective, less competent parents will be more likely to adopt the customs and values of the peer group.
Vacations are good, and I come back energized, with the whiff of Hawaiian Tropic in the air and 2,000 messages in my Inbox.
