By Larry Chiang

There is no such thing as a credit rating of “A+”. It’s an urban myth that FICO credit score ratings have grades. They’ve a one-dimension score with 650 details to worry about.

2013 will bring changes to sxsw

I offer a three article series leading up to the March conference in Austin that will publish December 15 December 25 January X

Meanwhile, enjoy best of 2013’s SXSW Entrepreneurship articles
