I haven't posted much on here in . . . years? Largely because my following here was mostly from my journalism days and I wasn't a journalist for the past decade! But after a lot of requests, I managed to get the old PandoMonthly archive back. (Actually Paul did for my 50th birthday). I am reposting them with current commentary in case you have missed them. . . it's a pretty wacky historical record given all that has happened in the past 15 years in tech (and politics!) @Sarahcudavault" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">youtube.com/@Sarahcudavault

@photomatt @CNET and ICYMI the full video youtube.com/watch?v=zfbkdN… perhaps the most interesting bit. . . is "exploiting" a good or a bad word when it comes to Silicon Valley economics? @photomatt love to hear your thoughts on this blast from the past. . . <3

today in the PandoMonthly vault my thoughts on the @photomatt pm nearly 15 years later. . . youtube.com/watch?v=Lf2QpY… the forgotten impact of the @CNET mafia, what Matt of 15 years ago says about WordPress drama today (perhaps), and LITERALLY JAZZ HANDS!

@LusciousPear @paul_shannon thank you!! I miss all of the old Pando and TC crew too <3 or the nice ones! haha.

@sarahcuda @paul_shannon You are missed <3

Good to hear from Sarah. I too haven’t been on here for a good while but to me it seems to have settled down to be more like old Twitter. Hearing from Sarah reminds me of that.

@davemorin this was my reaction video . . . including what I woudl ask him now youtube.com/watch?v=pSzeBz… ps: when i posted this on LinkedIn a while ago Dave reached out and said he never stopped speaking to me-- he just went quiet! <3 he was actually planning on coming to the bookstore soon

@davemorin and when i rewatched it, it made total sense why. It was a really great video and a great masterclass in entrepreneurship for the right reasons. Would you do it again if it wasn't going to be a homerun? youtube.com/watch?v=3SsQoK…

Paul Carr and I could not remember for the life of us who the first PandoMonthly was. (Arrington was the first but the sound broke and it didn't count. blessedly no video.) It was a MUST that this event go well and be a big deal.

Nope, don't do this. Show your work - show it everywhere. Talk your book. Demonstrate your skill. The right people will never find you, if you don't put it out there.

She helped bring Java into the world at Sun Microsystems, changing how software is built and distributed, and later founded Marimba, early in delivering software over the internet. I made this portrait as part of my New Heroes project, which is about spending time with the people shaping our future and trying to see them clearly, as they are.

@chrismichel @kimpolese Oh wow!!! I love Kim! what a great shot!!!

my somewhat tortured fifteen year later take on it. . . youtube.com/watch?v=LbX7L1…

Not a surprise, so far this one has been the most popular. .. youtube.com/watch?v=mPBtUF…

@Lincoln_Osis well welcome to the par-tay!!! :)

@sarahcuda Never heard of you

@Prokofy That's really sweet of you (or anyone!) to want to hear from me. I've been writing on LinkedIn more now that I'm back in the Valley again more. linkedin.com/in/sarahcuda/ Mostly I am helping people co-author books but anonymously!

@sarahcuda Do you think you will at least blog again? I realize a magazine is a lot of work.

@sarahcuda I loved watching these! Thanks so much to you and Paul for re-releasing. I am also curious to hear the commentary now. Certainly seemed like a more innocent time

@jdker I know, right?? I almost couldn't watch them because I am not close to a lot of people who used to mean a lot to me. I was going to post them without watching. But I found I had a lot to say. There are a TON of great stories there for anyone who is a journalist now!
