Facebook, Tesla And Solyndra Dominate SecondMarket Transactions In January
Last month SecondMarket published data on private company stock sales that they helped complete in 2009. They’ve now released last month’s data as well.
A total of a little more than $13 million in sales occurred, with the average transaction size of around $2 million. There continues to be very strong demand for consumer products and services startups (which includes companies like Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, Digg, etc.). But the sellers are spread out more evenly across all categories, particularly consumer, IT, Healthcare, energy and cleantech.
36% of the transactions were sales of Facebook stock, and we’ve heard from independent sources that sales are being completed for as high as $40 per share (or a $17.6 billion valuation). That’s a substantial price increase from less than a month ago. Tesla took 29% of the transactions, and sales of Solyndra stock were 28% of the total. Gridpoint rounded the group out with 7% of the total.
The complete report is below, and you can download the pdf here.

Philips SoundSphere Stereos Keep Their Tweeters Where You Can See ‘Em [Stereos]
about 2 weeks ago - No comments
Before Twitter existed, the term “tweeter” didn’t describe a person but rather a thing—the part of the speaker that reproduced high frequencies. Philips’ new MCi900 and MCD900 hi-fi stereos let theirs hang out for the world to see.
Before you get too excited, take note the pretty new systems were announced by Philips’ Spanish division and will likely never make it to American soil. That’s too bad, because there’s a lot to long for:
The MCi900 and MCD900 have CD players and USB ports for taking in your tunes and a nice big color display for navigating through them. The MCi900 model has Philips’ Streamium technology which lets you listen to Internet radio or stream songs wirelessly from your computer, and it also includes a 160GB hard drive for storing all that music on board.
But the systems’ most striking features are their SoundSphere speakers, which have bodies made out of a single piece of aluminum and include the unique floating tweeter design which supposedly delivers a more natural sound.
There’s no word on how much they’ll cost yet, but that’s probably for the best. Even if they were in your price range, you wouldn’t be able to get your hands on them anyway. [Engadget]

Grogger: A New Platform That Lets You Crowdsource Your Blog’s Content
about 2 weeks ago - No comments
Looking at blogs and news sites across the web, it’s clear that many have robust communities with eager, intelligent people looking to contribute. But up until recently, the only way most sites (particularly blogs) allow users to share their thoughts is through comments, which work well enough, but certainly aren’t always perfect. Grogger is a new service that looks to help sites tap into this community knowledge, allowing you to build a site that includes posts written by both you and your audience.
At its core, Grogger is an easy-to-use blogging platform, but rather than only exposing its editing tools to a handful of site administrators, they’re shown to everyone. When a user comes to your Grogger site and writes an entry (called a Grog), you can have it directly posted to your blog, or added to a moderation queue, where your site administrators can approve it. 
Google Buzz Boosts Sharing On Google Reader By 35 Percent
about 2 weeks ago - No comments
Social sharing is becoming a big contributor to traffic for many sites. While Facebook and Twitter drive more sharing than any other services, Google is trying to compete with Buzz, which is now part of Gmail but shares links to article and blog posts through Google Reader. Over the past month, according to AddThis, sharing through Google Reader is up 35 percent, with a big jump on February 9, the day Buzz launched. This number only measures sharing through the AddThis button, which is on more than 600,000 Websites and gives you the option to share content through more than 200 services. So it is only a proxy for total sharing on Google Reader, but a decent one.
Google Reader still barely registers when compared to Twitter and Facebook, which account for 31 percent and 8 percent of all sharing via AddThis, respectively. But Buzz is definitely giving it a boost.
