Part two discusses the recent acquisition of iFanboy and what it means for Graphic.ly.
In part three Micah talks about their new hire, Charley Hine, and how Graphic.ly plans to apply location data to the experience of reading digital comic books.
In the final segment Micah talks about how the iPad and other digital devices are just form factors for viewing content.

There has been a lot of coverage of EventVue as of late due to their announcement earlier this month that they were closing shop, and their post-mortem blog post.

The University of Colorado New Venture Challenge hosted Tom Keller, formerly the CEO of Intense Debate, a TechStars company from the 2007 class that was acquired by Automatic in Q4 of 2008. Automatic is the company behind Wordpress. Tom is a serial entrepreneur with a history of founding and leading startups and mentoring other entrepreneurs. As the title suggests, Tom's talk focused on connecting with your customers. In this video Tom talks about the history of Intense Debate from his perspective. Tom breaks down various methods of traditional advertising and stresses the importance of word of mouth advertising and the need for "raving fans" talking abut your product. Our recording suffered in terms of audio quality so we decided to only make a couple of video clips available.
