Earlier today I saw this interesting tweet from Chris Dixon.
Google is trying their hardest to make a dent in the social universe by creating, or buying or cloning these days.
So this tweet can make you think how different things at google might have been if they were able to keep these folks at the company like they did with Android for example.
But this isn’t how Silicon Valley works and the world is better for it. Those founders learned some valuable skills at google and built some life long relationships (ev worked with @goldman and @biz at google and it’s no secret that there are a fair number of former google engineers at foursquare).
And because california (unlike MA, NY and others) doesnt allow the use of employee non competes the world gets Twitter, Foursquare and Instagram.
That is a very good thing and we should celebrate it.
Having people leave your company isn’t always a bad thing. Even for the company being left behind. More innovation makes everyone better.

die Homepage der Kölner Verkehrsbetriebe. Für 98% aller Nutzer sind die grün markierten Bereiche interessant und überhaupt der Grund, die Webseite der Verkehrsbetriebe aufzurufen:
Und dabei sind das die am schlechtesten gestalteten Elemente. Und das gilt für fast alle Verkehrsbetriebe in Deutschland.
Hossa, zum Glück bekommen es die Schweizer SBB hin.
