Angel Seeks Web 2.0 Video Start-up Co-Founder/CEO

In the tradition of 'rock singer seeks drummer' a Silicon Valley exec and angel is looking for an experienced entreprenuer to co-found a company. Here are the details:

I am an angel investor based in Silicon Valley. I am looking for an entrepreneur that can take an idea I have in the online video space, and launch a start-up with it.

My role would be that of an active investor --I will make a small seed investment to get things off the ground, help shape the idea, the product strategy, go to market plan, etc. The entrepreneur would be the founder, CEO and have majority ownership – this would be their company.

I am currently actively involved in the Consumer Internet space. I am ideally looking to work with an engineer that has a good understanding of the Web 2.0 space and trends. I am not looking for years and years of experience nor is it a requirement that you should have done a start-up before. Strong technical skills and a passion for building a successful company are key. Here are some specific criteria I have in mind:

• Engineering degree in computer science; skills to build an online video sharing site from scratch

• Will work with first time entrepreneurs

• Based in the Bay Area

• High level of personal integrity

I realize that this post leaves many questions un-answered. If you want, please reply, tell me a bit about yourself, and we can continue the dialogue from there.

Sound cool? Send your resume and cover letter to Techgigger.

Work For a Palo Alto Web 2.0 Start-Up With A Silly Name At Your Own Peril

boorah logo.gif
The Boorah people of Palo Alto are in stealth mode and won't give you much more than a peak a their logo. They will tell you:

"We are an early stage startup focused on creating an Internet Vertical website that blends community and social networking elements with the latest technology advances in web. The goal is to become ‘the destination’ on the Internet for this very focused vertical. Our proprietary semantic search and correlation algorithms will incorporate community network feedback to enrich the user search results and provide a dramatic improvement to existing services in the market place."

Plus, they claim the un-named founders are Internet Mucky-mucks. We checked their blog and they do seem obsessed with GPS, but who knows what vertical Boorah wants to sit on top of.
