Description
Facebook Inc. CEO Mark Zuckerberg reportedly flew to New York
recently to meet with Foursquare founder Dennis Crowley,
intensifying speculation that Crowley may sell his hot
location-based social network. But in this video interview with The
Deal, serial entrepreneur Caterina Fake, whose current startup is
recommendation Web site Hunch and who sold her first startup,
photo-sharing site Flickr, to Yahoo! Inc. for a reported $30
million, argues that entrepreneurs with a sale under their belts,
like herself and Crowley, who sold his first startup Dodgeball to
Google Inc., are less likely to sell the second time round. -- Mary
