I use now to follow Daves Mathews tweet since I met this guy at Web2.0 Expo…
He has a big leadership in talking to right people.
Then I saw this tweet from yesterday: “Nite kids! Early morning in the car to the Silly Corn Valley tomorrow…”.
What for, Dave?!
To follow Dave tweet that’s here.

This is the kind of things nice but not that important!
A geek use of Twitter…
Just some colors and some words starting with:
“I love”, “I hate”, “I feel”, … picked up from Twitter streamline thanks to Summize.
Again a discovery from Chris Messina

I know Mike for a long time, crossed him many times, but did not really have the time to talk a little.
He has many activities, amongst the followings:
- Editor at TechCrunch UK
- Director at NewCorrespondent.com
- Blogger at MediaBites.com
Mike was in San Francisco to be also part of the WebMission2008 which is a very interesting initiative. I have already organized a Study Trip in Silicon Valley a month ago, very constructive for the guys. And Mike is explaining it perfectly.
I’m planning to be back soon in Silicon Valley and ready to organize a new one. If any interested, ping me!

Eric Gonzalez and Ross Mayfield are the initiator of a “Barcamp for Silicon Valley entrepreneurs who want to learn the basics of legal and financial details of starting a new company”.
As a former Finance Manager and now co-founder of a company that works in the environment (and as well very involved in a startup too), I’m very interested to attend!
The format looks good: Eric and Ross have inviting 3 CEO Founders, 3 angel investors and 3 Legal, Accounting and HR professionals who can help answer questions, walk you through the basics of:
- Legal structure of the company (C Corp vs. LLC vs. S Corp)
- Funding (angel vs. Venture capital vs. bootstrap)
- HR and Operations (Benefits, payroll etc.)
Really the basics for an entrepreneur, we all know that!
I think this kind of event are really important for startup entrepreneur, as their status is a kind of “fragile” one, so many risks and question marks at this stage!
Any advice is good and real experts in specific areas is a better concept than somebody giving global advice without the appropriate vibes as I did see in a previous StartupCamp in Paris.
Happy to join anyway guys and see you in Palo Alto.
Vysr is the sponsor of the event.
Time to go!
***UPDATE***
Missed the event for some stupid reason.
Well, see you next one?
Grrrrr.
