Found|READ

Good friend Lars Pind and his business partner Christina Wodtke have just finished the release of Om Malik's new site Found|READ, powered by the collaborative platform PublicSquare.

FoundRead sounds interesting. Here's Om's blurb:

Mulling over this for a few days, it dawned upon me, that the lessons I am learning, thousands have learnt before, and might actually have a wider (and better) perspective on trials and tribulations of being a founder of a business. Not just a tech start-up, just any business. Why isn't there a resource that captures this tribal wisdom? What if we could
build one — one that can be shared by one-and-all?

While there are some excellent resources such as Reddit-powered YCombinator start-up site, Startupping, Venture Hacks ... what I envisioned was a digital salon — where the conversations were started, experiences shared, questions asked and answered — with us writers playing the role of a salon keeper, a.k.a. conversation lubricant.

...

FoundREAD is a shared resource, where anyone can contribute, either through their posts, or experiences or comments. You can choose to contribute freely or anonymously. Just like a GPS system helps us drive through a maze of freeways, the founders and entrepreneurs help their peers navigate the twisted, confusing roads of company building.
