“Odd to watch companies I’ve founded do their thing from afar”<\/span><\/div>\n
– Mike Arrington<\/span><\/div>\n

\nLet us “ball breakdown” that Mike <\/span>@arrington<\/a> <\/b>tweet. He’s saying a lot inside 140 characters. Mike is teasing you with 2 stanford engineering, entrepreneurship things. My breakdown will help you because I set a protocol to street smart business. Yes, I love you and I do not even know you, my newbie #ENGR145 reader.<\/span><\/div>\n

\n<\/span><\/div>\n
~1~Spinouts {#ENGR145s<\/a>} <\/span><\/div>\n
Crunchbase got Xx, million in VC from Mayfield. Crunchbase is a spinout business from TechCrunch. <\/span><\/div>\n

\n<\/span><\/div>\n
Crunch is from the Latin derivative which means to munch food in your mouth. The hashtag <\/span>#ENGR145s<\/a> is meant for you to work on <\/font>#ENGR145<\/a> stuff that is three-quarters baked. More on that in a stanford engineering Facebook post, #3qB. <\/font><\/div>\n

\n<\/span><\/div>\n
\n

“When you spin out a business from another business, that new business is 1\/2 to 7\/8th baked. That spinout is not a startup. It’s started-up. It’s a business. It’s <\/span>#ENGR145s<\/font><\/a>“<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<\/div>\n

-Larry Chiang<\/span><\/div>\n

\n#2 #nonEmployeeCoFounder<\/a><\/span><\/div>\n
\n<\/div>\n
When you’re a cofounder but NOT an employee, often you’re a VC. <\/div>\n
\n<\/div>\n
That rhymed, was funny! And is also genius! <\/div>\n
\n<\/div>\n
Remember, mike said “watch from afar”. Mike was a VC when CB spun out. That’s  #nonEmployeeCoFounder<\/a>.  The pattern recognition that is #nonEmployeeCoFounder<\/a> is so really innovative that it gives you a 26.1 mile lead in the marathon THAT IS stanford engineering ENTREPRENEURSHIP<\/span><\/div>\n

it’s about to get more funny before it gets super technical.  #nonEmployeeCoFounder<\/a> is verrrrry often when a FoundersFund GP helps you co-found a startup. More on that over on twitter…<\/span><\/div>\n

\n<\/span><\/div>\n
 #nonEmployeeCoFounder<\/a> will be broken down after these applicable tweets. <\/span><\/div>\n
