			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p></p><p><img class="alignright size-full wp-image-1033" title="mycorporatelogo" src="http://www.startupbooster.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/mycorporatelogo.jpg" alt="mycorporatelogo" width="325" height="82" />Today I was contacted by the founder of <a title="http://www.mycorporatelogo.com/" href="http://www.mycorporatelogo.com/" target="_blank">My Corporate Logo</a>, a site dedicated to improving your corporate identity as you enter the business world. Vineet Kothari, the founder and CEO of My Corporate Logo, had he following to say about his startup.</p>

Besides, we have also designed hundreds of websites, brochures, letterheads, business cards, and envelopes for our clients.

We are able to tap into a pool of highly skilled designers and artists with years of experience behind them to service the needs to businesses looking to get a logo designed.</em></p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;"><em>While My Corporate Logo is a paid service, start ups and small businesses can benefit significantly.

Satisfied customers can always come back to get all their web needs taken care of under a single umbrella.</em></p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;"><em>The start up is an extension of an established web business and hence we are able to keep our costs low while at the same time leverage the parent companies infrastructure and pool of quality resources and processes.  The focus of the business is also going to acquire as many logo customers with the ultimate objective of converting them into larger customers by offering a wide variety of services like web design, web application development, mobile applications, rich internet applications and other creative services.</em></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p></p><p style="line-height: 14.25pt; background: white;"><span style="color: black;">Yahoo&#8217;s social bookmarking site, delicious.com got a facelift today. Delicious an early adaptor of social media hasn&#8217;t really changed since their early days. They survived as many new social media sites came online in the recent years but now Yahoo decided that it is time to really go &#8220;social&#8221;. It is time they do this unless Yahoo wants to write this off due to lack of creativity.</span></p>
<p style="line-height: 14.25pt; background: white;"><span style="color: black;"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-659" title="delicious" src="http://www.startupbooster.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/08/delicious.jpg" alt="delicious" width="500" height="413" /><br />
</span></p>
<p style="line-height: 14.25pt; background: white;"><span style="color: black;">According to their <a title="http://blog.delicious.com/" href="http://blog.delicious.com/" target="_blank">blog pos</a>t, this is coming out of their testing of Twitter activity for their Yahoo News Stories. Back in January they tested something called &#8220;TwitterNews&#8221;, which ranked Yahoo News Articles and the relevance Twitter messages. </span></p>
<p style="line-height: 14.25pt; background: white;"><span style="color: black;">The front page of delicious now lists the number of relevant Twitter discussions related to each story. This is something that will definitely rank stories based on real-time discussion rather than how many people bookmarked a story months ago. This will allow delicious to directly compete with other social media sites; giving life back to delicious.</span></p>
<p style="line-height: 14.25pt; background: white;"><span style="color: black;">Lately I’ve seen many startups piggy backing on Twitter’s open API to take advantage of real time discussions. </span></p>
<p style="line-height: 14.25pt; background: white;"><span style="color: black;">I believe this will add pressure on other sites such as Digg.com or other media outlets to figure out a way to allow social involvement or integrate with someone who is already doing it – i.e. Twitter.</span></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p></p><div id="_mcePaste" style="position: absolute; left: -10000px; top: 0px; width: 1px; height: 1px; overflow-x: hidden; overflow-y: hidden;"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-356" title="TeachStreet" src="http://www.startupbooster.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/07/TeachStreet.jpg" alt="TeachStreet" width="400" height="300" />TeachStreet lauched a new payment/marketplace service for real world teachers who teach real world classes such as sports, dancing and cooking lessons.</div>
<div id="_mcePaste" style="position: absolute; left: -10000px; top: 0px; width: 1px; height: 1px; overflow-x: hidden; overflow-y: hidden;">The platform allows teachers who are not very familiar with technology to easily implement payment processing system for their online courses. They can also use TeachStreet as a marketplace to get new students. It allows the students to review classes offered by teachers and search for high rated classes. It allows the teachers to monitor the number of hits their classes are receiving and also the sales.</div>
<div id="_mcePaste" style="position: absolute; left: -10000px; top: 0px; width: 1px; height: 1px; overflow-x: hidden; overflow-y: hidden;">It seems to be a site that brings together existing payment technology such as paypal and other known collaboration concepts to allow teachers to easily sell their courses online.</div>
<div id="_mcePaste" style="position: absolute; left: -10000px; top: 0px; width: 1px; height: 1px; overflow-x: hidden; overflow-y: hidden;">It is an interesting concept and without any doubt, required for the teaching community. However, I am not too sure how they can make enough money to sustain their services on the long-term.</div>
<div id="_mcePaste" style="position: absolute; left: -10000px; top: 0px; width: 1px; height: 1px; overflow-x: hidden; overflow-y: hidden;">TeachStreet is founded by Dave Schappell who used to work for Amazon.com as a Director of Product Development and at JibJab as Vice President of Marketing.</div>
<div id="_mcePaste" style="position: absolute; left: -10000px; top: 0px; width: 1px; height: 1px; overflow-x: hidden; overflow-y: hidden;">Dave&#8217;s &#8220;About Us&#8221; pages says the following as to how TeachStreet was born:</div>
<div id="_mcePaste" style="position: absolute; left: -10000px; top: 0px; width: 1px; height: 1px; overflow-x: hidden; overflow-y: hidden;">&#8220;Undaunted, Dave sought a teacher at his scooter dealership and was directed to an old bulletin board at the back of the store. Thinking, “There’s got to be a better way,” Dave discovered that there wasn’t. So he created one. And—after a bit of brainstorming, many sticky notes, and some generous funding from investors—TeachStreet was born.&#8221;</div>
<div id="_mcePaste" style="position: absolute; left: -10000px; top: 0px; width: 1px; height: 1px; overflow-x: hidden; overflow-y: hidden;">Their page also summarizes their service with the following quote:</div>
<div id="_mcePaste" style="position: absolute; left: -10000px; top: 0px; width: 1px; height: 1px; overflow-x: hidden; overflow-y: hidden;">&#8220;TeachStreet is a dynamic online community that brings motivated learners and talented teachers together. On one hand, this is a place where people who love to learn can find classes that are just right for them. On the other, we offer a public forum that helps teachers, coaches, and other experts share what they know. In the process, TeachStreet helps these experts grow their businesses with simple online tools they can use to promote their classes, workshops and special events. So they can then focus on what they do best—teach.&#8221;</div>
<div id="_mcePaste" style="position: absolute; left: -10000px; top: 0px; width: 1px; height: 1px; overflow-x: hidden; overflow-y: hidden;">Good luck to Dave and his team.</div>

And—after a bit of brainstorming, many sticky notes, and some generous funding from investors—TeachStreet was born.&#8221;</em></p>
<p>Their page also summarizes their service with the following quote:</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;"><em>&#8220;TeachStreet is a dynamic online community that brings motivated learners and talented teachers together. On one hand, this is a place where people who love to learn can find classes that are just right for them. On the other, we offer a public forum that helps teachers, coaches, and other experts share what they know. In the process, TeachStreet helps these experts grow their businesses with simple online tools they can use to promote their classes, workshops and special events. So they can then focus on what they do best—teach.&#8221;</em></p>
<p>Good luck to Dave and his team.</p>
