Mefeedia in Private Equity Week
I had a chat with a journalist last week, here's the article. I like my description. "Entrepreneur" ;)
Private Equity Week: "Manhattan based-entrepreneur Peter Van Dijck, who runs MeFeedia, says VCs are calling him about wanting to invest, but he's not even calling back.
"I'm not looking for any money, but I've gotten a few calls," he says with a laugh. "Usually, they email me first. I think they're trying to figure out what's happening in the market, and where it's going."
MeFeedia catalogs more than 1,000 vlogs (or video blogs, which are Web logs that use video as the primary content), which encompass tens of thousands of videos, up from 100 vlogs six months ago. Van Dijck says the business costs just $2,000 a month to operate with the help of two contractors. He says he doesn't know how he will make money, though like many entrepreneurs in the space, he envisions growing profitable either by selling ads or by charging fees for premium levels of service, which he says that he is currently developing."
