This Week in Startups

Jun 16, 2009 4 Comments by Jason Nazar

This past week I was Jason Calacanis‘  guest on his new program This Week In Startups.  It’s a tech interview and news show, aired live on the web, where Jason discusses topical subjects geared towards entrepreneurs and tech enthusiasts.  A couple of the more interesting moments include 1.) the disucssion of how we first raised money for Docstoc and broke into the Silicon Valley scene, 2.) me asking Jason why he’s guarded when it meets people in public for the first time, 3.) why new Microsoft products sound like goofy action cartoon captions, 4.) Fondu (jason’s pitbul) putting a company in the deadpool, and 5.) J Cal giving away tickets to the upcomming TechCrunch50 conference like lolipops at a kids birthday.
