A private investor for 20+ years, I manage private portfolios and write about investing. You can read my market musings on three different sites: 1) The Deipnosophist, dedicated to teaching the market's processes and mechanics; 2) Investment Poetry, a subscription site dedicated to real time investment recommendations; and 3) Seeking Alpha, a combination of the other two sites with a mix of reprints from this site and all-original content. See you here, there, or the other site!

A New Dimension

Venture capitalist, Fred Wilson, believes we need “a new dimension” — something beyond search and into relevancy.

“I feel in my gut that we need a new dimension, a new vector, a new lode to mine. And I feel that we are close to finding it … Many have said that search is the new dimension. Google’s success would certainly suggest that they have found the next lode to mine, and are doing a damn good job mining it. But I think search is just one of the vectors and that the new dimension is relevance. And search isn’t the ultimate in relevance.”
