Jim Breyer Goes Hip Hop With GlobalGrind First Round

globalgrind.png
Accel Ventures has led a $4.5M Series A round in New York City-based Global Grind, says PEhub.The alpha invite-only stage startup appears to be a Netvibes clone, RSS-driven custom home page concept with a hip-hop edge. The startup has hip hop cred as it was founded by 3 founders of 360hiphop, which was acquired by BET Interactive. So start with a custom home page tool then build social networking off that and if it works Breyer will be hanging with Lil Wayne (maybe he does already).
