In 2002 Warren Buffet sent this stark warning to his investors: “In our view […] derivatives are financial weapons of mass destruction, carrying dangers that, while now latent, are potentially lethal.” Bill Gross was rumbling about the looming crisis in November last year. Marc Andreessen predicted the “oncoming nuclear winter” on April 18th in Ning’s […]
Alan Steele just tagged me to write 7 songs I like and then tag 7 people I know to do the same – kind of a blog chain letter. I don’t actually know 7 bloggers – and yes, I don’t get out much at all – in fact I’m pretty much an uber nerd who […]
I was reminded again today of how incredibly important it is to team up with the right angels and how incredible the angels are that we teamed up with. One day when I’m not flying stealth I’ll write a book about this stuff. Until then you get the adventures of Ziggy my cat and other […]

I don’t feel so good. Last night I ate a pint of Ben and Jerry’s Phish Phood in a single sitting. It’s basically every decadent thing they could come up with shoved into a 1 pint cardboard container. I think I made myself diabetic in an evening. I had good reason though. My cat dissapeared […]

I had the great pleasure this morning of getting a surprise visit from Phil, Mark and Alan from Mergelab at our offices. We had an excellent chat and shared a little of what each of us is working on. It’s been great watching the rapid and early iterative approach they’ve taken to figuring out what […]
