As a rule of thumb, if you can’t pitch your company in ten slides or pitch yourself in one page, your idea is stupid and you suck, respectively.

In many cases — most, even — I expect this is true. I suppose it’s humorous because Mr. Kawasaki does not admit the existence of great ideas that are simply hard to explain. (Maybe some physicists or molecular biologists or can chime in with exceptions to his rule.) (Attention physicists and molecular biologists: if you are reading this, you seem to be lost.)

(As an aside, I’m trying Clipmarks for posting all the little amusing or interesting things I find while perusing the Interpipes.)
