The entrepreneur turned VC warns that there is too much money chasing too few marketable ideas. The crash, he says, is coming next year. Outspoken entrepreneur-turned-VC Mark Suster last night put a date on a prediction he has been making for some time in his blog about a coming crash for angel investors: The end will come next year. “And if not 2012,” he said. “Then 2013.”

After that conversation, as I was driving to a dinner meeting, an idea occurred to me. The phrase “Chief Executive Officer” doesn't convey much, if anything. There's a better way to describe the role. I will posit that in a technology company, the CEO should be the Chief Experience Officer.

So you want to be an Internet billionaire. It’s not just about having a great idea and building a world-class business at light speed. A review of recent initial public offering filings for Internet start-ups shows that the founders of Groupon and Zynga — and by other indications, Facebook, which has yet to file — have had to do more. These entrepreneurs avoided selling their precious equity...

Now I’m speaking for one hour at Defrag in Boulder, Colorado next week on November 9 and I’m terrified. For one thing, all of the other speakers are smarter than me. Right before me is Roger Ehrenberg speaking about “big data”. I’m not even sure what “big data” is so right off he’s smarter than me. Then Paul Kedrosky is speaking later in the afternoon about god knows what. Paul has an excellent...
