Hi,

Just read that in the news this morning:
    http://news.com.com/2061-11199_3-6106670.html?tag=nl

This is somewhat relevant to us (Kiko is/was a potential Scooby 
alternative) though, in the case of a start up with VC money, the reason 
for failure or throwing the towel can be multiple and obscure.

Anyway, considering the nature of Kiko, Web 2.0 venture, founded by Y 
Combinator, Paul Graham's company (see the always thought provoking 
http://paulgraham.com/), this is creating quite a bit of comments in the 
blogsphere:
