i’ve wandered over to startup08 a couple of times but never got round to watching this — thanks for the reminder. it was hilarious and very sobering.
every once in a while, very infrequently, someone comes along and points out that the emperor is actually naked. it’s really a breath of fresh air to hear david talking about the fundamentals that really matter and putting some of the incredulities so prevalent in today’s online “businesses” in their place i.e. on the comic stand-up stage.

I love the “Zappos sells f*cking shoes” part of the video. I got to thank David in person at RailsConf this year.. still have to struggle not to whip out with that line when people ask what my company does.

Wouldn’t have seen this if you didn’t post it up. Nice find Jessica. I took plenty of notes.

Yup, thanks Jessica. This was a great thing to watch. I’ve been shooting for the moon again with an idea, and like another poster mentioned, this was very sobering. Sometimes I wonder why its the simplest things that we cannot see.
