- Square Now Being Used For Mobile Payments At Political Fundraisers
- TechCrunch
- Ryan said: The thing that interests me most about Square is that it feels like a hardware bridge to something else. Hard to believe we're going to need to "swipe" physical magnetic strips for much longer.
  Quote: With Square, there is both a convenience added for both the payee and fundraiser. The donation is instantly processed, and Square will send the receipt via SMS or email to the payee. Added: March 18, 2010 at 12:19PM EDT

- Better Place draws massive $350M to charge electric cars
- VentureBeat
- Ryan said: If you read the profile of Shai Agassi and his company in Wired last year, you know why this is important.
  Quote: Recently, Better Place has shifted its focus to battery-switching stations over straightforward plug-in charging stations like those being developed by Coulomb Technologies. The company plan is to launch a chain of sites where drivers could trade in depleted batteries for fully-charged ones. Added: January 25, 2010 at 10:03AM EST
