So - what do you need to launch a T-shirt site? Well, shirts for one, but it’s not that simple. Oh, wait. Did I forget to mention that UNHAMPERED IS NOW LIVE!!! (subliminal message: Go buy t-shirts from Unhampered).
It really helps to launch your site though if you have a REALLY pretty girl wearing all […]

Man, it’s in the blood, I tell ya! So Darin Blanchard, brother of Pronetos CEO Chris (ok, that’s me), gets it in his head to launch his own photography site, and VOILA! 206Photography is born!

What’s the deal? Let me tell you. 206Photography is just what it sounds like. Yep - 206 is the area code […]

Dear Steve:
Congratulations! I see that you have finally convinced Zuckerberg to sell you a stake in Facebook. Great news! Now only 19 more acquisitions to make this year until your “20 acquisition per year” strategy is deemed a success.
But listen: only a 1.6% stake? 1.6%? A […]

My good friend Tac Anderson sent a Twitter out the other day about a “Semantic Search” site called Hakia, and told me to go check it out. Apparently, all the VC’s and technogeeks were down at the Web 2.0 Summit drooling over this cool “new” technology. My bet is that the VCs will dump tons, […]

Man, we have been SO crazy busy that I have not had time to report on where we’ve been over the last week or so. Let me try to jog the memory.
Coolest thing by far was the last trip to Portland to get an update on the Pronetos site from the OpenSourcery boys. Let me […]

Remember the big Aerosmith hit, “if you don’t know how to do it, I’ll show you how to walk the dog . . . ”
Anyway, we all participated in the 2007 See Spot Walk fundraiser for the Idaho Humane Society. Big props to Jeff Rosenthal, DVM, the director and the staff there who had one […]

Just got back to Boise this morning from Seattle after attending the TiE event in Bellevue. It was a crowded event with lots of smart people - a real international crowd. I learned a lot about what is going on in an ‘A’ market like Seattle, but it’s still confusing as ever as to what […]

NO! Had you going though didn’t I? Probably not. Anyway, tonight is the inaugural Kickstand meeting in Southern Idaho, and 3/4 of LGM will be there for that. Just prior, we have another update on the UI redesign for Pronetos. But I won’t be doing any of that.
No, instead I will be in Seattle at […]

This week in LGM land, we’ve been working heavily on getting the Pronetos business plan updated so we can get that out to people who care about such things. I think two of the chief virtues of the document is that it actually gets us a road map, and it helps to transfer some knowledge […]
