He may make a good point, but I wouldn't know. I didn't get past the 8th f-bomb.

Summary: Building a company and then selling it is a remarkable accomplishment regardless, and it is wrong to criticize Mint for not holding out for more.

good summary. Unfortunately, for Dave, noone would have paid any attention if he had written something so short and clear it could be sent through twitter.

I managed to get through the whole thing - and he does make some very good points. Suffice to say though, I would not let this man anywhere near a PR machine anytime soon.

There are ways to express your point and influence people - dropping f-bombs like you just got into middle school is generally not one of them.

But at least you know how cool and edgy he is. Saying "fuck" in a blog post is totally sticking it to the man!
