If you’ve never heard of The Red Herring it might be a bit late for you to catch up. For most of the nineties and throughout the tech boom, the Herring was the absolute dead centre of the entrepreneurial universe, typifying a distinctively Californian attitude to business – one-third boundless optimism, one-third intellect and one-third nitrous oxide, I think. The magazine survives but has suffered along with the whole sector and may never regain its preeminence. I mention the Herring because its founder and publisher (and now publisher of Always On) is among us. He read my sarcastic welcome for Always On and has commented the entry.
One response to “Perkins is among us”
Red Herring is like a fish in a frozen pond. When spring comes, it will swim again.
