I believe it's the "regular" capitalists who have blended into the venture capital biz over the past few years (causing excess capital) who contributes to the stupid group think mentality. It seems these RCs only want sure things or copycats (witness # of web 2.0 companies and other "hot" sectors): total antithesis to concept of venture capital. Nice article.

It is nice to hear that with the drive and the foresight, that a truly good idea can survive and flourish in any market. With that, what direction would you give for an entreprenuer that has a good business idea, but works for one of those "legacy thinking" larger companies? Any direction / advice would be much appreciated. Dear Mr. Xie,

It's hard not to listen to the naysayers, but if you work hard and have an great plan and strategy, you can surely make it. Excellent advice.

I have also put together a new concept in employment with my site www.NextEmployee.com, I have been hitting brick wals just like you were saying. Mainly it is, "The Industry doesn't need another Monster or Dice" while my model is far away from those. What do you suggest I do to keep going? I have taken it as far as I can with my own money and with the team that I have assembled. I need to get the help and investment of an Angel or VC to take it to the next step. But I can't seem to get a buy-in. Thank you, Diran Afarian Dear Mr Xie,
