Foursquare's Crowley on funding and building the 'next Twitter'

Mon, 02 Nov 2009 14:46:00 GMT

Foursquare Labs Inc., a New York mobile social networking startup whose $1.35 million first-round financing in September was the most competitive in recent memory, may be the next big hit on the Internet, say many tech entrepreneurs and investors. But beyond buzz, what is Foursquare, how does it plan to make money, and why did it choose O'Reilly AlphaTech Ventures and Union Square Ventures from among the many investors clamoring to back it? To find out, The Deal asked Foursquare CEO Dennis Crowley, the former co-founder of Dodgeball, which Google Inc. (NASDAQ:GOOG) bought and subsequently deadpooled, for a behind-the-scenes tour. Watch the video below or download it on iTunes. - Mary Kathleen Flynn Special thanks to Dennis Crowley, Naveen Selvadurai, Harry Heymann and Nathan Folkman from Foursquare and to the folks at The Scratcher.

C4[1] Sasser: Coda Confidential

Sat, 29 Mar 2008 05:10:57 GMT

A day after their tenth anniversary they shipped Coda: an app that history will record as changing the face of website development software. The always-entertaining Cabel recites Coda’s epic development back-story along with tangential takes on software design, usability and what it’s like to be resolution-independent.
