The Widget Economy

Today’s Great VC blog post is from Dave Hornik at August Capital.  Dave writes one of the longest running VC blogs (it might be the first, but I don’t keep track of these things) called VentureBlog.  His current post – The Widget Economy – isn’t about VC and entrepreneurship issues, but it does a good job of getting inside the brain of a VC and understanding how he thinks about the evolution of a new market segment.  It nicely compliments my Another View on Widgets post.  See - we VCs think about more than spreadsheets and liquidation preferences.
