I have discussed, just over a month ago, the absurdity of the Google Groupon deal. I argued that it was not only absurd, but also stupid for Google to buy a coupon website for $6 billion. The potential deal was heavily criticized by Google's investors...

I'm heavily involved in project management, especially online; in fact, I received a season's greeting card from an online project management software company just today. So it comes as no surprise my interest in investing in project management firms, but...

Today I discovered that just owning a domain is a huge responsibility. Just owning the domain, let alone having a functional website on that domain. Here's the story, I bought this domain (I don't want to link to it directly in case it gets hacked another...
