New Feature: Tips and Career Advice from Onthefringe, a Silicon Valley CEO

I'm happy to introduce to everyone Onthefringe from Silicon Valley, CA who is a VC-backed, start-up CEO, sharing day-to-day insights in the day-to-day life of a start-up.

Onthefringe has agreed to share his funny, uncannily insightful, and always interesting tips and career advice for everyone from those who aspire to VC-backed Silican Valley Glory to the Guy-Who-Wants-NOT-To-Get-Layed-Off.

Take it away, Onthefringe...

Interview tip: I'm much more interested in hearing about what you've done & your thought process & way less about your graduate degree.

Mr. VC: Um, there are no 'secret revenue models' that I know of. If there were, I would have already done it. Then it wouldn't be a secret.

CEO & Board tip: It's definitely more fun to be on the Board of Directors than to answer to the Board of Directors.
