I loved his articles. tried to find them, but realized all of the archives were completely gone. Anyone knows why, or has an archive?

It says in the about section: "This blog is on temporary hiatus -- will be back soon with a new design and fresh content!"

i think it always said that, but had the articles present. why would he take down those articles?

revorad2• 17 years ago

Oh ok, I didn't know it always said that. I thought maybe it's some side effect of redesigning the site.

He should publish them as a book.

I loved the last chapter of his start-up guide: "Title: how to hire a CEO for your start-up. Body: Just don't. If there's no one among the founders who can be CEO, leave ASAP."

It would be awesome if he started writing again.

You think Eric Schmidt has done a bad job leading Google? You really think two guys with zero experience even working for, much less leading, a company wouldn't have slipped up by now? I think it very wise Larry and Serge enabled Schmidt to take the helm.

Andressen got a bum deal with Netscape. Their VC appointed leadership, IMHO, was, uh, lacking. But hey, them's was the early days.

In my judgment, Eric joined long after Google was in startup mode.

And, Larry and Sergey hired a guy who has a PHD in EECS to be their CEO.

He hasn't taken all of them down:

Given the inaugural nature of that post and the new design, I'd say the site is being repurposed.
