Playing Through

Posted on 15:20 by Unknown
This has absolutely nothing to do with pharmaceuticals or devices.

Although she's a tad unkind to VCs for our taste, kudos to Swisher, of the WSJ’s All Things Digital, for the pre-interview tour. (IN VIVO Blog has to get one of them fancy cameras in the budget.) And a big giant nod to VentureBeat directing us to the video.

McNamee’s somewhat famous co-managing director was out of the office doing something.
