    Launching a New Site for Union Square Ventures

    This morning we have launched the new web site for Union Square Ventures at usv.com.

    We are very excited about all the dynamic elements on the site.  For instance, if you visit the page for a portfolio company such as foursquare,  you will see recent blog posts, tweets, photos and videos about the company.  The same is true for the team pages.  Here is my page as an example.

    The dynamic content is aggregated using Magnify.  We have also chosen to replace the thesis page with one that combines blog posts that together give a much better and evolving view compared to a one-off summary.

    The new site is the work of the wonderfully talented Phoebe Espiritu and was project managed by our own Eric Friedman.  A huge thanks to both for a job well done.

    The Jay-Z/Sinatra link isn’t so far-fetched. Both grew up on the poor fringes of New York — Sinatra in Hoboken, Jay-Z in the Marcy projects in Brooklyn — and made A-number-one through mastery of craft, business smarts and exploitation of their own hyper-masculine poise. Theirs is the story of the bad boy made very, very good, who breezes stylishly through high society with an impossibly glamorous woman on his arm, yet never loses his street-smart edge.

    Kris Krug is still amazing. He grabs a ‘bird of a feather’ table placard and takes a pix of everyone with it. (From ReThink: Hawaii - Geeks on a Plane (via kk+))

    I could not be prouder!

    My wife Erin was included in the Hollywood Reporter “Nex Gen” list of the top 35 young up and coming execs in Hollywood.  Her profile in it is here.  While she might not be an entrepreneur like me, making it to the level that she has in Hollywood is a far bigger accomplishment then anything I have done.

    My friend Chris is one of the ski industry’s most sought after photographers. This is his office a good chunk of the year (harnessed in and legs dangling from a helicopter).
