Saw the trailer for The Social Network movie the other day, and I’m excited. Because there are really only three criteria I look for when it comes to mildly nerdy movies about internet startups

  1. does it have a hot guy in it? (justin timberlake) check!
  2. does it feature montages of a rise to fame and fortune (a la the movie Blow)? check! 
  3. does the preview feature good music? (cover a Creep) check!

verdict: I’ll be watching this movie.

When many of us think of an Internet company we might think of a Michael Cera type character holed away in his parents’ basement but the stats from the report show some interesting trends. Entrepreneurs in 2010 are a relatively homogeneous lot: Most are older than you think and yet only a fraction are black (1%) or female (8%). Still there is some hope that good-old smarts wins the day; 98% have an undergrad degree or higher.

Holla for android! I jumped on that bandwagon as soon as my old t-mobile contract expired :-)

That up there’s a graph. A graph which says that for the first time, Google Android devices have outsold Apple’s iPhone, with a smartphone share of 28%. Pretty cool for an OS that took it’s time maturing. Granted, I’m sure part of the reason the iPhone is lagging a bit is because it’s been almost a year since a new model was released, while Androids come out every 4.5 seconds, but it’s still pretty significant. Whether this is still true after the 4th generation iPhone comes out is certain to not happen remains to be seen, but for now, enjoy your silver medal*, Android!


*RIM’s Blackberry OS is still king, with 36%.

last night, Dirpy totally knew that Glee was my jam (so to speak). Best website ever for downloading songs when all you want is a single, as opposed to an album.

I’m just not sure I appreciate that … HMPH!!
