Maybe Dave McClure Should Just Use UberCab

There is a very excited startup out there called Baydin that is about to close it's first angel round of financing. One of the investors, at least, is Dave McClure's 500 Startups. How did they get McClure to invest? By giving him a ride from a meeting to his mechanic.
Then, my girlfriend noticed Dave?s tweet that said he was looking for a ride to his mechanic. Anyone who picked him up could pitch him on the way. Figuring dignity is for the unfunded, I threw on yesterday?s clothes, hopped on 101, and headed over to Buck?s to give Dave McClure a lift.

Overeem video before and during his K-1 appearance

Alistair Overeem was back at it again this weekend. The Strikeforce heavyweight champ isn't fighting MMA in the U.S. for the remainder of 2010 because of his participation in K-1's Final 16. This lead-in video seems way to good to be relegated to the internet. There's pretty funny stuff including Overeem finally getting manhandled. He gets worked over by an older masseuse.

You can see the results of his hard work below. Ben Edwards takes the best Overeem can dish out but can't stand any longer after a dozen-plus sledgehammer overhand rights and three knockdowns. HDNet announcer Michael Schiavello makes Gus Johnson sound less than enthusiastic. 

K-1 Final Results:
Sergey Kharitonov def. Takumi Sato by KO (Round 1, 2:50)
Dzevad Poturak def. Chalid Arrab by TKO (Corner stoppage, Round 2, 0:06)
Tyrone Spong def. Ray Sefo by Decision (Unanimous decision, 3-0)
Gokhan Saki def. Freddy Kemayo by KO (Round 1, 2:14)
Daniel Ghita def. Errol Zimmerman by KO (Round 2, 0:18)
Kyotaro def. Jerome Le Banner by forfeit
Peter Aerts def. Ewerton Texiera by Decision (Ext. Round, 3-0)
Mighty Mo def. Raul Catinas by Decision (Unanimous decision, 3-0)
Semmy Schilt def. Hesdy Gerges by Decision (Unanimous decision, 2-1)
Alistair Overeem def. Ben Edwards by TKO (Round 1, 2:08)

Sony's Google TVs on sale at Best Buy tomorrow, already hitting stores?

Sony told us that Best Buy wouldn't begin selling its Google TV sets until October 24, but it looks like that wasn't quite right -- sources within the big box retailer tell us the TVs have already arrived, and will be free for all to purchase when an October 17th street date breaks tomorrow morning. The scrap of paper you see above goes on to suggest that full shipments may not actually arrive until the 19th and that the Logitech Revue won't appear until the 20th, but if you're looking to get a nice big NSX without hunting for a Sony Style store, it's definitely worth a shot. That assumes, of course, that you're not planning to wait for our full review. Might we recommend at least a brief glimpse at our early hands-on? Find a pic of Sony's Google TV packaging after the break.
