A Tribute to Entrepreneurs: The Riskmaster
My first significant exposure to Tim Draper was when he boldly stated he was looking for "risk seeking missiles" at a Kansas City Kauffman Fellows event I attended. Since that time I've been lucky enough to build a couple funds together, exit a couple investments together and recently co-invest together into PayPerPost.
Tim is passionate, savvy and sometimes over the top -- like many great entrepreneurs I know. For the past couple years, in between backing and building more great technology companies, he's been caught singing his tribute to entrepreneurs, The Riskmaster, on any stage that would have him. In honor of our recent PayPerPost co-investment, I created the music video you see here. Enjoy it and check out www.TheRiskmaster.com for lyrics and credits.
Bonus points if you can name all the entrepreneurs shown in this video! Comments encouraged, unless you're complaining about video compression quality (YouTube limits were a problem). ;-)

Found your site through the Calacanis comment. I need to contact you guys. Im a FL native now living in Nashville, and was just down in Orlando sharing the video podcasting model with some folks. Im looking forward to learning more about PPP to determine if it works for my video blog (that already has 3K visits per day). Seems like an advertiser should pay more though if a product/service is shown on video as opposed to just text.
Hey Steve: I'd love to see more vloggers on the platform. Yes, advertisers have been paying more for videos -- check out YouTube for some of the payperpost video submissions (and the PPP Today Show video). To get started all you need to do is register at www.payperpost.com -- let me know how it goes!
Just shoot me an email if you hit any snags...
