Witch one? I just watched the half and all seems fine

[@JasonCalacanis]

[@JasonCalacanis]

Silicon Alley Reporter, my first business grew to ~$12m in revenue off my credit cards, and sold WEblogs Inc (engadgedt) to AOL for $30m about 18 months after starting in it... have deployed $100m+ into 400 startups over the past decade. So.. a couple of solid wins :-)
