Feld Thoughts : VC Behavior in Board Meetings

Fri, 14 Aug 2009 17:12:44 +0000

If this whole 'devices in meetings' debate is really about doing email in meetings then I agree with the point - doing email detracts from attention and it is very hard to just do a small amount. There are lots of good reasons to have computers in meetings besides email though, taking notes being one, and it would be a shame if they got lost because of an issue about email.

Feld Thoughts : VC Behavior in Board Meetings

Fri, 14 Aug 2009 12:34:04 +0000

Hi Brad - I am a VC who has recently started taking his laptop into board meetings, but all I do is take notes, which are then immediately filed in the right place and searchable. This has made me a better director by virtue of having better notes and better recall of issues and events. I have had to reassure people that all I do is take notes and your post has made me think that I should do that again, but I see that as a surmountable issue. Like anyone else I have a desire to check interesting emails when the alert window bubbles up, but I simply don't, and it isn't that hard, and I don't think of myself as having uber strong self control or anything. cheers, Nic

Peter – it sounds like you are building the equivalent of a feed reader for the realtime web. As I tried to describe in the post I see this sort of tool as enabling the realtime web.
