The collective energy of everyone is what really made Business 2.0 exciting.
From James Daly
The magazine was being started by a company that had no experience in business magazine publishing. It was a little difficult to get people to sort of buy into it and to join the staff, but we did.
The hardest part of it was really being away from my family - I have two small children. Last year I took over 20 business trips, so being away from them was hard.
I think what we should have done is integrate the web site with the magazine much earlier in the process.
You have to remember when we were going once a month, we were putting out issues that were 480 pages, and people were complaining that these were too big, I can't get through a 480 page magazine every month.
It's very rare that publications double their frequency.
There was never any danger of Business 2.0 ever going under.
I think Fast Company has a tremendously smart focus and execution.
I still believe that the mission of Business 2.0 is very strong, very fundamental, and we're really at the beginning of where they're going to take us.
People who say that the Internet is the bubble are incredibly misguided.
