Everyone is getting on the web. I could say that business is good online since a number of people are putting money into it. Well, July has increase a lot since it's the mid of the year and, I think it's during this time that businesses/people could decide which direction to go for their investments.
Great research and post. There's another startup http://www.whogotfunded.com/ who specializes in tracking the funding wave.... not sure how they make money though...
Hmm, Dollar Shave Club got $1M in seed funds... that big warehouse in their promotional video is misleading - makes it seem like they're already far more established than they are - still a great video though!
