The Pros and Cons of the Multitasking Entrepreneur

Entrepreneurs are a busy bunch. In last month’s subscriber survey, we asked how many of you pursued various extracurricular professional activities, including investing and sitting on boards. The results and commentary surprised us; entrepreneurs really are consummate multitaskers. But the activities aren’t without risks. 

As for the mood around the big public and private tech companies we track, growing optimism about the largest Internet companies appears to be lifting all boats. The Information subscribers are feeling more bullish about Microsoft, Google and, to a big degree, Apple. What a difference a car rumor makes.
