Wow! Cool blog post. This could be a series of blog posts...I'm sure people would love to hear what happened soon after this email was sent to the time when applications first opened last year.

Feld Thoughts : Why Do People Find Email So Difficult To Deal With?

How much time were you using on email? I spend about an hour a day solely on email.

VC Adventure : Life without email?

Tue, 10 Jun 2008 09:24:01 +0000

Interesting experiment. I probably could not live without email because it is something that is integrated into my schedule. Everyday before and after school, I check my email. I have been doing this since the 4th grade! During the summer, I check it periodically throughout the day via iPhone.

When I spoke at my elementary school, I learned that a third grader checks his email periodically throughout the day. Then again, he is different and reminds me of myself when I was a third grader. He is an entrepreneur at heart, without even knowing what that word means . I had no clue what that word meant for a while and still do not have a straight forward definition.

However, I think my friends might be able to live without email. It is something that majority of them do not check periodically everyday. Slowly, email is becoming more and more important to check but I think the more appropriate question to ask is "Could you live without Facebook"? The answer to that question is going to be on my blog later today!

If I make my way up to Boulder this summer, I think I can take the ping pong champ title ;)

VC Adventure : Your company should have a blog

Thu, 22 May 2008 15:12:31 +0000

I think the title should be, "YOU should have a blog", rather than your company should have one. Blogging for yourself, in my perspective, is more important than for your company.

In 2 years, will my start-up (that really hasn't even started yet...brainstorming stage) still exist? Well, I hope so..but if I choose to start another company in a year or so Clagster's (name of my company) blog will no longer exist. However, if I choose to create a blog for myself, in twenty years, my name will still be 'Cory Levy'.

Blogging is a simple way to easily express yourself on the internet. By having a blog you share your thoughts to the entire world with a simple link. I think that is a much more time efficient thing to do rather than trying to call or email the world.

Nice post/podcast! Jared is a great guy!

VC Adventure : I think blogging is cool...

Is the panel going to be taped or accessible on the web? I am highly interested in viewing it (I justed started my first blog: www.clevy.tumblr.com) but will not be in Denver.

Thanks.

Colorado Startups : Tip #5: Be Picky, but only about the right stuff

Tue, 19 Feb 2008 04:42:09 +0000

Great post, David! The "big stuff" that I am trying to do right now is number 2. I am interviewing and seeking out potential cofounders (with an advisor). Hopefully, soon I will find one that is as passionate about my idea as I am!

Ben's book is great!

I will be sure to pick up "The Mousedriver Chronicles" hoping it'll be a good read ;)

VC Adventure : Failure

Sat, 16 Feb 2008 09:41:21 +0000

Great post, Seth! I have learned from so many people that you learn most from your failures and love reading and reflecting failures. One question (it is really a statement) I ask to almost anyone I speak to is: Please describe your biggest failure and what lessons you have learned from it.

I have failed several times on the entrepreneurial side but have probably learned most from the two failures I recall (and wrote publicly about.)

Let us know how you like it! I am debating whether to get the Air or wait for a new Macbook Pro.
