FounderSoup: Stanford and Andreessen's New Startup Generator (Josh Constine/TechCrunch)
Josh Constine / TechCrunch:
FounderSoup: Stanford and Andreessen's New Startup Generator — A single entrepreneur alone is vulnerable to shortsightedness, to fatigue. But with a team comes diverse perspective, encouragement, and the wherewithal to push through problems. That's why a group of Stanford computer science …
FoundersCard
The top executives in today's largest corporations not only travel in style, but they have access to an absurd array of perks while they travel, from awards and complimentary products to discounts on just about everything. On the IPO "road show" for his company VarsityBooks (now part of eFollet.com), serial entrepreneur Eric Kuhn remembers being "amazed" by witnessing firsthand "the rates and privileges that top executives at the underwriting investment banks received." After leading VarsityBooks to be twice-listed as a public company on NASDAQ (the only company I'm aware of to do so), Kuhn got out in 2006 and started FoundersCard in 2009 -- determined to bring the same rewards and opportunities to entrepreneurs and founders -- "the true risk-takers and value-creators," he says.

AMG takes us behind the scenes of Ducati photo shoot
Filed under: Coupe, Performance, Marketing/Advertising, Videos, Mercedes-Benz, Motorcycle, Luxury

Mercedes-Benz has cobbled together a behind-the-scenes video chronicling a photo shoot with two stars: the 451-horseepower C63 AMG Coupe and a Ducati 848 in matching white. Deviating from the behind-the-scenes template, this one is more like a series of rushes set to music. In addition to the mechanical eye candy, a pair of models feature prominently (as suggested by the screencap above). The action takes place on an Iberian runway, and you'll find it after the jump.

Blogging Declines Across the Inc. 500
A new longitudinal study at the University of Massachusetts at Dartmouth focusing on the online activities of the Inc. 500 has found a huge drop in the number of companies maintaining corporate blogs over the past year. The UMass researchers, under the direction of Nora Barnes, has been following this group for several years. Only 37% of those interviewed had a corporate blog last year, down from half of those interviewed in 2010.
"The use of blogging may have peaked as a primary social media tool in the US business world," she writes. "The new data shows adoption of blogging is declining for the first time since 2007 among the Inc. 500 companies." Barnes' results about blogging in the Inc. 500 contrast sharply with its usage in the Fortune 500, as can be seen with the chart below where it has leveled off over the past three years.

The Inc. 500 is the fastest growing set of private American companies compiled annually by the magazine. Barnes and her crew called 170 of the companies on the list to find out what social media and online tools they were using.

Three-fourths of the companies are using LinkedIn and Facebook and social media tools are seen as important for company goals. Ninety percent of responding executives report that social media tools are important for brand awareness and company reputation. Eighty-eight percent see these tools as important for generating web traffic while 81% find them important for lead generation.
