i'm starting to think angels are just dumber, poorer VCs

i defy you to spend ten minutes on basho.com and actually know WTF their product ACTUALLY does. no wonder the VCs passed on this fluff

according to this page, they helped Akami increase their sales by 25%: http://www.basho.com/about/clients/6-akamai_technologies

I have no idea what they do, but attributing +25% sales due to a seminar is like me saying I bought the CEO of Leham Bros a coffee and therefore its down to me they went bust.
