pgryff··on With Eye On Future, Billionaire Investor Bets On Paul
"Obviously he doesn't believe that Ron Paul will win the Republican nomination."

Let's be honest, Ron Paul won't be around for much longer. If you are really trying to make any real difference, you need someone younger and who's got a better chance of doing something. That would be Rand Paul and not Ron.

Ron Paul had his run and it's over. To put money into him now is a losers bet. There's no real political future for Ron Paul while there is a hell of an upside for Rand Paul.

Stupid "bet" by Thiel. If he was truly thinking of the future, he'd be better off supporting Rand Paul not Ron. But a fool and his money...
pgryff··on Arrington, Race, and Silicon Valley
Not sure about him, but I see klout, just raised 30 million on top of a previous 10 million. And there was that social phone app that also raised 40 million... ;-)
pgryff··on I helped drive Adobe's acquisitions of Typekit and Nitobi. AMA
Thanks for posting the AMA.

What sort of business criteria are you generally looking for in acquisitions? Is it technology or is it people or something else altogether.

Thanks.
