2003 Aggregator Revenue Startup 
Both Sides of the Table
APRIL 4, 2011
It’s a very important concept for me because in a startup you are constantly under pressure and have way too many distractions. Commitment & urgency are key drivers of success in startup businesses.

As many of you know, in the past I’ve done a series of posts deconstructing the S-1s of VC-backed internet startups going public.

Being a startup founder is hard, tough, frustrating and rewarding – possibly all within the space of a nanosecond. I had been writing GigaOM (the blog) since December 2001, but in 2003, I started working on a piece for Business 2.0 Before I started GigaOm (the company) in June 2006, I had never really worked for a startup.
