About Jeremy Horn

I have been involved in founding or managing a startup, non-stop, in one form or another, for the last 10 years. I have a background, as a graduate of Carnegie Mellon University in Computer Science and winner of numerous graphics arts awards that has allowed me to be a unifying force of form and function, business and technology, art and process. Another driving force in creating of this blog, one very personal to me, is that when I started out, a great deal of what I hope to pull together and share via the Product Guy Blog, I would have loved to have known and have had access to when I began my journey in the world of start-ups, their products, and venture capital, and hope many of you will embrace these experiences.

  1. This isn’t actually about nothing, it relates to denoting clear type expressions in advanced computer languages (this is important in languages like Haskell). It IS creating content from nothing – what other content is there, though?
