I'm not in your class, but I'm going to write a failure résumé as well!

Thankfully we who live in the fishbowl have an automated failure resume
system – most of the tech blogosphere.
If it bleeds, it leads!

I really can't wait to write mine now, its length may not be very eco friendly though…

I love Tina Seelig's posts. Welcome to SiliconANGLE.

Every entrepreneur should have a very long failure resume. Even the best entrepreneurs fail but the very best don't fail to learn and innovate from failure.

I was having a conversation the other day in Palo Alto with someone and they said that Slide has failed. This is a great example: look at Max Levchin the serial entrepreneur, paypal mafia member, and CEO of Slide. He has been the cover story of leading magazines and blog articles as one of the best entrepreneurs out there yet Slide has had two of what this person would call "failures" under their belt. They are working on their third reboot of their business.

The person that I was talking to pointed out that that Max and his team have failed. I say no way. He has had minor failures but he's still in business and putting together another shot at innovating.

Entrepreneurship like life is a marathon failures happen but good entrepreneurs called them "minor inconveniences".
