Have you ever wondered how the splits between selling shareholders in a secondary offering get negotiated? Tom Evslin covers it flawlessly in Chapter 7 of his blook Hackoff.com: An Historic Murder Mystery Set in the Internet Bubble and Rubble.  I’m loving Tom’s blook (which will eventually be a real book) you can pre-order hackoff.com at Amazon (Tom promises that it will be a signed copy).

If you are only interested in how the secondary works – hop online and read Chapter 7 – Episode 1, 2, and 3.  Alternatively, if you are interested in a potential view of how - if you buy DSL from SBC, they will someday, if they can, charge you or Google extra if you want to Google over that DSL connection – then take a look at Tom’s blog.

The man knows of what he speaks.  Tom – good stuff all around.
