Our star publishers

Filed under Announcements, General

Few more loyal, creative publishers I wanted to highlight this week,

The first is rPulse, the site follows and reports on Hollywood and celebrity news while making it its mission to shy away from damaging gossip and rumors. To read more visit rpulse.com (previously known as perezrevenge.com)

Liz and her business partner are doing such a great job, we love your site!

Hollywood sign

The second is Forum Blue and Gold, I may be a bit biased here (living in LA for a couple of years and being a Lakers fan), but this is a great site, the site takes a straight forward approach and deals with what happens on the court, nothing else, you gotta love that focus- pure basketball.  Check it out at Forum Blue and Gold. Beyond great content I also got an interesting story on- why blue.

Thunder vs. Lakers

Keeping up with so many exciting sports events in March it just makes sense that our third publisher is another great sports site- The Ghostwriter, covering everything NFL and Football, check it our at Ghostwriter.com

2009 Capital One Bowl - Michigan State Spartans v Georgia Bulldogs

Nicely done! it’s great to see such diverse and creative sites.

China Fashion Week

With so many sports related events happening in March and April, I decided to take a short break and showcase different images- Fashion Shows ones.
China Fashion Week, March 25-31, is evolving from a small scale show to an influential event featuring 30 fashion shows, interestingly, critics say the fashion show has never been so “Chinese” with Chinese elements becoming more chic and popular in the fashion scene around the world.

We are kicking off March Madness.
Take out your Brackets and join us for real time images from the games.
As a Bruins fan I opted to use an image from last night- UCLA Bruins v VCU Rams where Darren Collison insisted on not letting Eric Maynor’s last shot get in right at the buzzer resulting in a 65-64 UCLA victory.

Stay tuned!

NCAA First Round: VCU Rams v UCLA Bruins

picapp is on the right track - Press : Here sunday morning show

Filed under Announcements, General

we got a nice tip from our friends today that picapp was mentioned live on the MSNBC KNTV’s  Press : Here Show.

The round table discussion was about the YouNoddle tool which provides calculated guesses for start ups valuation.  based on the short intro for the show , picapp is marked as one of the start ups that is on the track to success.  we also went and check what the Younoodle score thinks we worth and ….well , lets say we wish all of our last year investment charts would look like the chart they drafted for picapp.  I think this tool , as any other new tool  ( including picapp) still has a lot of place for improvements  and agree that if they will be able to hit 1 of 9 , it will still be a revolutionary thing.

we, at the picapp team,  still have lots of work and execution to do on our end as we must play in the start up game (we need to score 1 of 1 ) , but this video was , indeed,  a nice way to open Sunday morning with : )

thanks for Sarah Lacy , Scott Mecgrew and Maggie Shiels for including picapp in the show intro!
