“The Windows of New York project is a weekly illustrated fix for an obsession that has increasingly grown in me since chance put me in this town. A product of countless steps of journey through the city streets, this is a collection of windows that somehow have caught my restless eye out from the never-ending buzz of the city. This project is part an ode to architecture and part a self-challenge to never stop looking up.”
José Guizar is a Mexican graphic designer in New York City. Driven by curiosity and a constant desire to learn and evolve –among other more material things, of course–, I’m a devoted pursuer of the well-rounded designer utopia. I strive to create playful, clever, yet strong messages that let others communicate, and let me play entertainer.

Do our computer pundits lack all common sense? The truth in no online database will replace your daily newspaper, no CD-ROM can take the place of a competent teacher and no computer network will change the way government works…. What the Internet hucksters won’t tell you is tht the Internet is one big ocean of unedited data, without any pretense of completeness. Lacking editors, reviewers or critics, the Internet has become a wasteland of unfiltered data.

People say startups are risky, but for me, working at a job my entire life seemed like the worst possible outcome, so starting a company was the least risky thing I could do. I think that’s what people mean when they talk about founders being a little crazy. I realize this is an unusual personality trait.

An important problem in a market economy, and the one the VC attempts to solve, occurs when an entrepreneur has a good idea, but no money, while investors have money, but no good ideas.

Great businesses usually start off being a little contrarian. In the first few years, people will scratch their heads and won’t understand what the business is or how it will be successful. Then a few years later, they will start to understand. Being an entrepreneur means you want to be contrarian and right. If you’re the 50th daily deals site, you won’t succeed. It’s not contrarian (it’s trendy), and you’ll likely end up being wrong.
