It’s a buzzword, but an effective one.

Another Great List of Startup Advice

Evan Williams of Odeo gives out his Ten Rules for Web Startups.

It’s a very wise list, and it seems like a lot of startups I’m seeing right now are doing a pretty good job of following the list. Imagine, people might actually be smarter after dot-com bubble experiences! I think #1, #8, and #9 on his list are the most important in my eyes.

Williams is a good guy to listen to, he was one of the founders of Pyra which made Blogger and was acquired by Google. Now he has a good thing going with Odeo.

The Importance of SSE

There’s been a lot of buzz about the new RSS extension proposed by Microsoft called SSE. But people are still wondering what it does, and if it will be important.

Dion Hinchcliffe does a good job on his blog explaining what it is and how important it will become.

Are those Web 2.0 startups going to jump on SSE fast enough? My guess is yes. Making RSS two-way will be another step in the current web evolution.
