The AudienceMatch Network

Some of the comments on my blog accuse me of "talking up my game" which means i am using this blog to promote my own investments. I proudly plead "guilty as charged" to that. Dave Morgan, the CEO of Tacoda Systems says that "fred wears his investments on his sleeve". I think that's the best way to be in the venture business. Until they prove to be mistakes (which some do), i'll support my investments as hard as i can.

Speaking of Tacoda Systems, Rafat Ali has a nice post on Tacoda's new AudienceMatch network. I think this is a big deal. Contextual networks like Google's AdSense and Kanoodle are all the rage these days, but i think behavioral targeting is likely to outperform contextual and i look forward to seeing how Tacoda and its competitors do with these new networks.

Even if you are “Mr New York VC” or whatever, at the end of the day your bog is just one man's opinion.

I know that, you know that… to be indignant that your thoughts do not come pre-approved by “The Invisible Utopian Validation Committee” is rather childish, methinks.
