The Color Of Envy And Rooting Against Goliath
We're now two days into to the life of Color, and it's still the tech story that everyone in the blogosphere wants to talk about. Yesterday, I detailed why so much of that talk is directly related to the massive funding they were able to secure, rather than the product itself. And I wondered why so many people seemed to be rooting for it to fail spectacularly rather than succeed? The answer, it seems, may be quite simple. There were some great discussions in the comment section (can you believe I'm saying that?) of yesterday's post and a number of people reached out to weigh in as well. Of those, the most interesting perspectives were from entrepreneurs. A common refrain among them points to a simple reason for the Color backlash beyond the larger "bubble" talk: no one wants to root for Goliath.
