MercadoLibre and Why South America Shouldn’t Settle for Quick and Easy	Back before Brazil was the darling economy of Latin America, all eyes were on Argentina—or at least the dot com “eyeballs” were. In the late 1990s, when VCs, private equity houses and wealthy individuals where throwing Internet money around the globe, Argentina got more than its fair share. The relatively small country was home to the fifth-largest number of registered Internet domain names in the world, and in early 2000 the now-defunct Industry Standard estimated that some 50% of the Lat...

Finally, Google's Chrome for Mac Arrives	Don’t look at me like that, who doesn’t like the The Carpenters? OK, so the news....	December 10, 2009
Craigslist Blocks Yahoo Pipes After Dev Shows Craig His New Mashup	Developers take note: if you’ve got a mashup built off of Craigslist’s data, don’t even think about showing it to anyone who works there. At least, that’s the lesson learned by developer Romy Maxwell, who says that Craigslist has blocked both his mashup and every single project built on Yahoo Pipes a few days after a friendly Email exchange he had with Craigslist founder Craig Newmark. Maxwell is one of the developers behind a new mashup called Flippity, which lets you...	December 02, 2009
Video’s Impending Tsunami in Education	I have a few investments in the web video space. Specifically, Tubemogul and Edufire . I am off to Tubemogul’s Board Meeting today and am always excited to dive into the quarterly data. I will post an update from the Company tomorrow.

Digg For Bargains: Deals.Woot Is Now Open To The Public	Woot, the popular bargain site that offers one good (sometimes great) deal a day, has just launched a new portal at deals.Woot. The new site is a fairly major departure for Woot, which up until now has been driven by product selections from a team of Woot employees (aside from the main Woot.com site, which is often tech/geek focused, there are special subsites for shirts, wine, and a handful of others). Unlike these sites, Deals.Woot is run by its users — it’s essentially a Digg for b...	November 24, 2009
Rupert Murdoch End Game Strategy.	News Corp (NEWS) wants to make money, blow off Google (GOOG) and get paid by Bing for indexing. OK that part is pure capitalism and you have to understand Rupert Murdoch. Look beyond the deal. Financial news information is one of the major internet categories that has monetized. WSJ charged an online subscription fee from the get go. Microsoft (MSFT) has this thing called MSN Money. Yahoo Finance ain’t what it used to be and Google Finance while it seems to be big is not driving Wall Street. H...	November 23, 2009
The Dell Earnings Debacle: The Day After	Dell (DELL) shares have dropped 10% after yesterday’s highly disappointing earnings report for the fiscal third quarter ended October. As I noted yesterday, the company missed on both the revenue and EPS lines, posting results that suggest the company is continuing to lose share to its computer hardware rivals. As noted, the company reported revenue of $12.9 billion, up just 1% sequentially, down 15% from a year ago, and below the consensus at $13.2 billion. Per-share earnings of 23 ...	November 20, 2009
Ctrip.com: Earnings Drive Stock to New Heights	Aside from E-House Holdings (EJ) which completely fell flat on its face, one of the best earnings reports of the past few weeks was Ctrip.com (CTRP). Unlike EJ, the stock gapped up after earnings and tacked on a bushel of points.On Thursday, the stock has came back and filled it's "gap" in the $66s, where I am going to create a starter stake of a 0.5% allocation. I would prefer to be a buyer around $60 (where I'll place a limit buy near) with a stop loss below that point. But it's a...	November 19, 2009
Foursquare Continues Its Ground Assault With 50 More Cities	After being restricted to just a handful of cities for the first several months of its existence, Foursquare is now in a period of rapid expansion around the globe. Fresh of its launch of 15 European cities a couple week ago, today the site has rolled out support for 50, yes 50, new cities. Though they haven’t formally announced the massive expansion yet, which pretty much doubles their total (they had 53 cities previously), Foursquare’s Harry Heymann tweeted about the addition today...
