Amy Quinn from the publication InsideCRM sent over this link of their recent list of the 20 Worst VC Investments of All Time, a ranking of venture funded companies which have crashed and burned. Topping the list is Amp’d Mobile; the only other So-Cal firm I can spot on the list is #11, eToys.

Most of these are Boom 1.0 firms — ie Webvan, Pets.com, Kozmo.com. It would be interesting to compare the types of numbers raised on those firms (ie $100’s of millions) versus the money being invested into firms today.
