SeedCamp Interview Day - a real Eye-Opener..

So I attended the SeedCamp Interview Day yesterday, and I have to say it was a real eye-opener…
I managed to arrive at the right building, in time, and found that the interviews were running a little late.  That bought me a bit of extra time to get to know some of the folks that were […]

Experiencing that recurrent pain of social networks..

Have you ever wanted to share something with a certain group of people you know??
Well, it seems, since my travels around Peru, in 2005, I’ve yet to find a perfect solution for this dilemma…  Back then, I was travelling around Peru, and wanted to share some of the more personal stories, with select groups of […]

SeedCamp - the contest

So I’ve entered a contest called SeedCamp, and I need your support.  What’s the contest about?  Well, it’s a competition, run by some of the big venture capitalists in Europe (read - people with lots of money, who made it big in the dot.com boom!), including founders of skype, bebo, and some bigwigs from google, […]

Seedcamp spawns spin offs… in Germany

Seems Seedcamp in London has spawned sufficient interest in Germany, to trigger a weekend Seedcampy/Code Sprint/Startup Weekend type event… It’s great to see Seedcamp inspiring people to step forward and take the initiative… Hope it spawns a whole bunch of collaboration in Europe, at a level that’s been missing so far…

Facebook being criticised for living inside a silo…

It’s started… The undeniable need for social networks to be open, and available for everyone to use has started to percolate to even the community of wired.com. Scott Gilbertson, in his article, Slap in the Facebook has addressed an issue that has been very present to the world of non-profits, and commercial organisations for […]
