I have been a telecom\/internet entrepreneur for 17 years now. But other than building my companies together with some great employee\/partners who have followed me from Viatel<\/a>, Jazztel<\/a>, Ya.com<\/a>, and now Fon<\/a> I also invest in other people\u00b4s companies. My criteria for investing is simple, I invest in companies whose services I like and whose entrepreneurs I admire. Tariq Krim\u00b4s Netvibes<\/a> is a good example. The companies other that I have invested in are on the sidebar in this blog and I would not be surprised if you use some of them. The other day, I was hanging out with Dave Sifry<\/a> and we were talking about how could we judge how attractive or “hot” a certain new service or web sites were…. and jokingly we came up with applying the concept of “hotornot”<\/a> but this time, not for babes or dudes but for web sites. Why do this? Well I think there\u00b4s a correlation between what folks think is attractive, what they use and….what I may invest in. So here\u00b4s Webhotornot<\/a>, just launched, have fun adding and voting on your favorite web sites.<\/p>\n

PS: we are getting so many visitors right now that we are not being able to add screenshots for new sites in time. Please bear with the coders at Fon Labs<\/a> so we can fix this in the next few hours. <\/p>\n
