Why blog?
I think this is the canonical “first post” to a new blog. Many people have taken different shots at it, ranging from “why not?” to “who has time for this?” Now blogging has reached enough of the mainstream that starting one at this time seems almost like following the herd - everyone else is doing it. In particular, many VCs have started blogs recently, so it seems I’m just jumping on the bandwagon. In fairness, I have been blogging sporadically for about 3 years on topics of a more personal nature. It’s much more of a “hey, this seems cool” short post format, there’s no real writing there. The objective of this blog is to capture more of my professional thinking around interesting areas of technology to explore, as well as issues surrounding early stage VC and entrepreneurship. Let’s see what happens!

Sorry the comments were broken. Brain-damaged mistake in Apache config on my part. Have at it now!
