Ron Conway, David Lee, and Brian Pokorny meet new startup founders practically every day as investors at renowned angel funding firm SV Angel. So when they came backstage at this week’s Disrupt NYC event after their on-stage talk with Michael Arrington, I asked them to talk about the most inspiring up-and-coming founders they’ve met with lately — people who may be flying a little more under the radar than the Jack Dorseys of the tech scene at the moment, but could very well be the next big thing.

Brian Krebs Gets SWATted
RedLeg writes “ArsTechnica reports that Brian Krebs, of KrebsOnSecurity.com, formerly of the Washington Post, recently got SWATted. For those not familiar with the term, SWATting is the practice of spoofing a call to emergency responders (911 in the U.S.) to induce an overwhelming and potentially devastating response from law enforcement and/or other first responders to the home or residence of the victim. Brian’s first-person account of the incident and what he believes to be related events are chronicled here. Krebs has been prominent in the takedown of several cyber-criminal groups in the past, and has been subject to retaliation. I guess this time he poked the wrong bear.”

Scape, Brian Eno’s new ambient music creation app is now available on the iPad (video)
Music making apps for the iPad are ten-a-penny, but when it’s the brainchild of a super-producer like Brian Eno, you have to take notice. Scape is the third of his collaborations with Peter Chilvers after Bloom and Trope, an app that lets you generate ambient music with Eno’s own sounds on a colorful, conceptual interface. Unlike standard beats’n'loops setups, each sound is tied to a series of rules — including the time of day — that ensures the tunes you create never play the same way twice. It’s available from iTunes for $ 5.99 / £3.99, and who knows, maybe in a few years time, Coldplay’ll come calling for your professional expertise.
