He's Back
Well the blogging world is talking about Jason Calcanis this week.
Nick Denton http://www.nickdenton.org/ and Jeff Jarvis http://www.buzzmachine.com/ are both talking about his Weblogs Inc. http://www.weblogsinc.com on their weblogs.
So are Wired and Frank Barnako.
So Jason is back. And thank god I say. Sure he's a hype-master. He made his share of mistakes at SAR. Didn't we all in those crazy years of the late 90s. But you know what, he's scrappy and smart. He'll fix what's wrong with his model. And he'll come up with a few new tricks that will take us all forward.
This is part of a larger story really. The entrepreneurs are back. With scars in their backs and a lot more humility. But they are back and working hard again. It's about time.
Back? Hell, we've been here all along, quietly making money. It's the investors who are back "with scars on their back and a lot more humility." :)

I get so cross when people talk about "dotbomb". A lot of really interesting things happened back then, and not just to the millionaires. Yeah, the kill rate was high, but hey, they could have kept their jobs as bank tellers.

I had a representative from Segway on my radio program at WRKO. My position was that it was great technology but with very limited practical applicability. I was clearly right.

I agree with Copeland. The entrepreneurs did not go away, we've been here all along. Our pace however has slowed to a crawl because work teams and initiatives had to be downsized due to funding constraints.
