The collective energy of everyone is what really made Business 2. 0 exciting.
You lie awake at 3 in the morning thinking of story ideas. You're online at 8 a. m. on a Sunday or midnight on a Wednesday. It's a job that you never push aside.
See, what we were going to do was say, the Internet is this great business strategy tool.
I still believe that the mission of Business 2. 0 is very strong, very fundamental, and we're really at the beginning of where they're going to take us.
I'm a history buff, and right now we're sitting on one of the most dramatic historical shifts that this planet has ever seen and we have a front row seat for it.
You know, technology CEOs like to think of themselves as rock 'n roll stars.
I think Fast Company has a tremendously smart focus and execution.
The best rock musicians are the most exciting people in the world.
You can't be distracted by the noise of misinformation.
There certainly was a lot of potential in the air for doing a magazine which focused on the way business, in particular, was being transformed by the Internet.
Rock stars are incredibly energizing to me.
And I love writing. I've always loved writing.

The story of the Internet is this incredibly strong, exciting change.
The magazine was being started by a company that had no experience in business magazine publishing. It was a little difficult to get people to sort of buy into it and to join the staff, but we did.
You've just got to focus on excellence and try not to be distracted by the news and the rumors and the absurdities of the stories that were coming out.
Business 2. 0 was hugely profitable last year, and will be profitable this year.
You have to remember a lot of business is very cyclical.
