One Month After Selling To Microsoft For $1.2B, Yammer CEO Predicts End Of Silicon Valley
Alexia Tsotsis quotes Yammer CEO David Sacks:
“I think Silicon Valley as we know it may be coming to an end,” Sacks posts, arguing that because major Internet companies are on the prowl for innovative ideas, it’s too risky and costly for entrepreneurs to attempt to create successful new companies. “How many [viable] ideas like that are left?”
This is certainly concerning. As you probably know, startup ideas are a limited natural resource, and despite recent advancements in extraction techniques there’s increasing concern that we’re approaching, if not already past, “peak idea.” I hear there’s talk in Congress of tapping the Strategic Idea Reserve.
I’m still against offshore drilling for it, though. It’ll be too disruptive to the migratory patterns of venture capitalists following the yacht trails to Cabo San Lucas.
This is a bright clear medium- ruby color wine with garnet notes on the wide rim and long legs on the glass. Clean on the nose with medium+ intensity developing aromas suggesting strawberry, tomato, cassis, wet leaves, pepper, violet, redcurrant, cranberry and vanilla. Dry on the palate, with medium+ acidity, medium- ripe and fine-grained tannins, medium alcohol, medium+ body and medium+ flavor intensity displaying strawberry, plum, wet leaves, pepper, violet, redcurrant, marmalade, cranberry and vanilla. The sweet fruit and warm alcohol are balanced by the zesty acidity and its supple tannins. Its texture is supple for an overall expressive and well-defined wine from a cool climate region. Its length is medium+. Very good quality for a well-balanced wine, with good fruit concentration, good complexity and length. Typical Australian Pinot Noir around 36 euros from 2008 in Adelaide Hills, good to drink now but with ageing potential.
I was impressed with the Australian Pinots that I had in and en route to Melbourne. You never see them in California, which is a shame.

True. I’ve had a real problem lately of being stuck in beast mode when I’m driving home after CrossFit. Must control rage issues…
