Came across a great quote from Georges F. Doriot, considered to be of America’s first venture capitalists as founder of American Research and Development Corporation, the first publicly owned VC firm.

“There are two times for a young company to raise money; when there is lots of hope, or lots of results, but never in between.”

We just finished producing a :60 custom promo for the new “Clash of the Titans” (premieres April 2, in 3D) for FSN and Warner Bros. The spot, which begins airing today, was written and produced by Colin, designed and edited by Chris and sound-designed by Rob. Thanks to Rona and Dar as well for helping make this one a blast to work on. Now … release the Kraken!

A good read on internal branding.

I don’t usually post straight-up quotes here, but I’m a fan of Feynman, and thought this was well worth the pixels:

“There are 10^11 stars in the galaxy. That used to be a huge number. But it’s only a hundred billion. It’s less than the national deficit! We used to call them astronomical numbers. Now we should call them economical numbers.”

Richard Feynman
US educator & physicist (1918 – 1988)

Suppose this falls in the category of “perennial classic”. I’ve read it several times since I was a kid. Just happens to be on my bedside table presently.
