Generally consider it insightful and sharp. Burn Rate is a fascinating cautionary tale that should be required reading for all would-be Net entrepreneurs. If there is any moral here, it is that in those first heady days of the Internet, puffery and self-promotion worked better than achievement. He offers richly detailed accounts of negotiations with some of the Internet world's best-known figures. Burn Rate has a terrific feel for the crazy deals, the characters and the clashing bicoastal cultures of the Internet.
