C’est Magnifique! LeWeb 3 2007 Thoughts

Last year, after LeWeb 3 (2006), I came back from Paris fuming (You might remember). It was pretty evident to all, including my Mum calling me after she realised just how upset I was (and creating a mental note that ‘my parents read my blog…‘). Well, I’m now back from LeWeb 3 2007, the forth [...]

A Few Conferences Before Christmas (Nokia World and Le Web)

So next week I’m off again, with a three night trip over to Amsterdam to attend Nokia World, the Finnish companies chance to show off to a conference of delegates and press.

[Le Web 3] Loic Le Meur’s Reply and My Thoughts

First of all, Loic Le Meur has replied on his blogs to the blogstorm of comments around Le Web 3. You should head over and read that first.
I am glad Loic has said sorry, and he’s looking to move forward. That’s good. Personally the main issue I have is that Le Web 3 turned into [...]

Le Web 3 held the promise promise of bringing together entrepeneurs, coders, internet geeks, I wanted to find the man behind the UK/Europe echo chamber of Tech Crunch UK, Sam Sethi. Why start the company? What challenges are there for VC funders, how do start ups work in the 2.0 world, and what can they [...]

[LeWeb3] Technicoloured Flights and Hostels

What a craccking flight over from Edinburgh to Paris. I realise it’s not for everyone, but for me flying isn’t flying unless theres a bit of turbulence to make it feel right. I guess this comes from when I leared to fly a glider in my youth, so all those twitchy movements and corrections are [...]
