Everything in life is sales…

Saturday, March 17th, 2007

We were up in Napa Valley today and took a tour of Rubicon Estate Winery (used to be Niebaum-Coppola) and the tour had quite a bit of history to it. At one point they were telling us how the founder, Gustave Niebaum, was something of an evironmentalist. Granted, Gustave made his massive fortune in the fur trade.

Goodbye to Danny and Aloke…

Saturday, March 17th, 2007

Two of my friends left today to take on different jobs. Danny is going to a startup so I won’t tell anything I know about that and Aloke is heading to Apple to work on the iTunes store.

  • Danny and I worked on MapIt, MyConstructionWorld and a number of other “kind of sanctioned” projects
  • Aloke worked on a huge number of FairMarket platform projects over the last 3.5 years (can’t begin to list them all) and is one of those guys who would have done well at FAIM (sure, then he’d be as broken as the rest of us so prob better he wasn’t there)

Good luck to you both!
