   "There are different ways to approach startups. One thing I admired about Google is we said “this thing is huge, and we’re going to kick ass at it”. It’s the CS approach to business. The other approach is “this might be a thing if we pull this off”. I ran into this when we were at Google with Blogger. People asked how big is the market for blogging? I said “I don’t know”, but if we make it awesome lots of people would do it. With Twitter there is no market, other than we knew it was cool."

In computer science a byte (pronounced "bite", IPA: /baɪt/) is a unit of measurement of information storage, most often consisting of eight bits.

techbytes.biz is a unit of measurement of information about all things digitized from the perspective of Douglas Craver.

Doug is a tech marketing and operations action strategist and startup craftsman, entrepreneur, writer, huge Hammond B3 Organ fan - and any musician who can master one - and a great cook (I’m told I can, “throw it down”) based in Northeast Ohio.

I like to think of techbytes.biz as a utilitarian tumblelog and virtual workspace. I hope you enjoy your visit, comment and come back soon.
