The disclosure-free Pulver 100
1:00 PM – Now that the Pulver 100 is in its fifth year, I have a bunch of stupid questions:
How many of the companies on the list count Jeff Pulver as an investor, shareholder, board member, or paid advisor?
How many companies on the list allow their employees to wear Hawaiian shirts any day of the week?
How is the list assembled? (Note: "It is typed" is not the answer I'm looking for there.)
Does Pulver evaluate each company individually? Or does he enlist the help of a young genius who helps him, using a combination of police work and higher mathematics, like on the CBS show NUMB3RS?
Is the Pulver 100 picked by VON Magazine, which counts Pulver as its publisher?
Will Viacom sue me for saying NUMB3RS?
Is the Pulver 100 picked by the staff of The Pulver Report? (Note: The Pulver Report's next issue is set to arrive in June 2005.)
Are the Pulver 100 winners notified by calls from a Free World Dialup client?
If Jeff Pulver bought a NASCAR event, would he call it The Pulver 100?
Did Pulver really just publish a list of hot "IP communications" companies and neglect to put a single hyperlink in the whole bunch?
Do I have to go to the Pulver 100 lunch at Spring VON to find this stuff out?
Is VON Mexico a conference, or a clandestine hotel alias used by Atlanta Falcons quarterback Michael Vick?
