For all you entrepreneurs out there this video which I ran into on Valleywag is a how to video. How to justify a $1 billion valuation. I consider this a great video news release.

The real upside is the “language of love” – that’s money love. Enjoy the video and great sound bites from top venture capitalists. This is their language. You speak it – you get money.

You get a billion dollar valuation and your investors get to do the video.

I personally think that LinkedIn will be a big company. Great to see that company grow from a roledex to a business utility. The jury is still out if they can sequence to being a full on social network. Right now it’s a turbo roledex. One weak area for LinkedIn is in real time presence. No real value to users regarding ‘Presence’. I hope they work on that problem or should I say opportunity.
