I did this interview with Andrew Warner, an entrepreneur whose web site mixergy.com aims to help other business innovators. Andrew and I both ran tech startups "back in the day" and got to experience the Internet Bubble first hand :-)

Hey Stephen, I just wanted to say thanks for doing the interview on mixergy. I have been reading through some of your posts here and will definitely come back for more.
Thanks for doing the interview. You have such an amazing story, but when I researched you in preparation for the interview I realized that it's hardly mentioned online.
Nice to hear you. I founded a start-up myself in Nov., and am finally starting business now. :) Thanks for the advice
Steve, you are a genuine cool guy. I would like to hear some of your time management habits which enable you to be a professor & businessman at the same time.
Great interview, Stephen. Thank you.
Why is it that after his SafeWeb payday Steve still can't beat his kleptomania and continues to steal tuition from his students.
Siebel building in Emeryville... I remember that. Scopus Technology was located there, before it was acquired by Siebel.
