RE: [syndication] trouble at isyndicate?

Lessons to be learned are probably the same as for other dot coms,

1) balance investments and cashflow projections
2) keep a low profile, new economy players do not need big expensive
corporate offices to impress with their business models, do they? If there
is a new economy at all, it is based on
microeconomic efficiencies
3) become aware of new economy dimensions and dynamics and embed them
in the business model. Dont start off pretending you are time warner, cause
you aren't.
4) huge technology investments should be carefully weighed and backed by
sound plans for returns, before capital is layed out, not after

what else?

the only reference i can find to this right now is on f'dcompany.com,
but apparently isyndicate.com has laid off a bunch of people
and is on the verge of either some sort of deal (acquisition by
screamingmedia.com?) or shutting its doors.

i wonder what lessons there are to be learned from what they've
gone through (and are going through).
