It is definitely strange that when startups succeed they tend to believe it is because of their incredible product, idea or whatever. Yet when they fail now they will have recession as an excuse instead of blaming the failure on their own operations. It is just amazing and definitely serves as yet another proof that we at least needed the crisis to learn to be more reasonable in our approaches.</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">profy</dc:creator><pubDate>Fri, 10 Oct 2008 05:04:09 -0000</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
