Entelo's mission is to help companies build great teams by allowing them to search for talented people regardless of where they represent themselves on the web.

We're helping 160+ companies with their hiring needs including fast-growth companies such as Facebook, Salesforce, Github and Lyft.

Our Tech Stack: Ruby, Scala, Rails, MySQL, Mongo, Redis, Elasticsearch

Some of our perks include $300 headphone allowance, 100% coverage of employee health care premiums, 1:1 matching for donations to non-profits, catered lunches and free in-office bike tune-ups (our co-founder worked at a bike shop in a past life!).

We're looking for sharp, collaborative full-stack and data engineers as well as sales ops professionals here in San Francisco. Please see our careers page for more info https://www.entelo.com/careers

I'm the founder and you can email me directly at jon at entelo dot com if you're interested in working with us at Entelo.

AirBnB existed before AirBnB as well. People just called it Homeaway or VRBO. AirBnB did a few key things much better. I think there's the same opportunity in self-storage (although not sure what makes this model finally take off).

A couple of years ago I proposed an idea for "AirBnB for self storage" on Quora: http://www.quora.com/Collaborative-Consumption/What-is-the-n...

Still seems like a massive opportunity. $24 billion market in the US. Inconvenient locations (for many people). People have (collectively) a massive amount of under-utilized space. Not without its challenges but neither was AirBnB when it started.

Sorry, should have clarified. Of the new wave of ed tech companies, there haven't been any big acquisitions. Both Embanet and deltak were founded in the 90s.

I'm super psyched about this but, as a former ed tech entrepreneur, also a bit concerned.

The concern lies here. The blog post references a record $509 million in ed tech financing in 2014. However, in the last 10 years I believe we have only seen two companies go public (2U and Chegg). Both trade at modest multiples to invested capital and neither is focused on the K-12 space. And those are the success stories. Other than those two, I can't think of a nine figure acquisition other Wireless Generation.

My concern is that, unless we start seeing large exits soon, we'll have a lot of investors fleeing the space similar to what happened to the "e-learning" companies in the wake of the dot com crash.

I sincerely hope that I'm wrong though. I'm a big fan of ImagineK12 and many of the companies referenced in the blog post. I'd love to see a number of IPOs and big exits which will drive more capital towards innovation in this sector.

I think the key here is to not take time away from more important things to read. When you are sitting in front of a computer there are a million things you could be doing to push your startup forward.

What I've done a lot of recently is play the audio of articles (using Apple text-to-speech) while exercising, stuck in traffic, etc. Allows me to "read" a ton while not taking any time away from normal work time.

I almost never read articles sitting in front of my computer anymore.
