In the case of a lifestyle business, sure, that exit makes sense, but I was
thinking more around venture backed companies. In most cases, there is a
push for either M&A or IPO. Generally, the concept is that there is an
“exit” on the decision. The decision is over, and its time to move on to the
next one.

You were nervous to meet me? See, that always bums me out. Im not that
scary... :)
Thanks for the kind words. I do think that people can be spurred to action
by others, but I dont people “inspire” people. Most people are already
leaning in a particular direction, and just need a nudge.

It is clear that you nudge better than most.

Me? Im kinda a shover.

Personally, I like to not care about the trees and just barrel through the course. Small things like trees are too much worry for me! :)

The concept of compelling vs. inspiration is very interesting. Thanks for
bringing it up, I will have to think on it...
Can people be compelled to do something based on others actions? Probably...

eat what you want. Just photograph it.

Bruce, I would imagine that you and I are very similar in that we have tried
multiple things over the years, some being successful, some not so.
For me, I just need to get into the range where being active is fun again.
So, if it takes photographing my food, I will do just that...

I can't imagine a job, other than teaching, that has such a high "fun"
potential as investing. Helping people achieve their visions while
making several constituencies money, must be satisfying on multiple
levels.

Re: The Foursquare "Crush"

Yesterday morning, I had a friend ask me about what I thought about publicly providing a product roadmap. My reaction is that openness is never a bad thing. Of course, there are always pieces of information or strategies that should be kept under lock and key, but if you treat your users and potential users as thinking adults, there is almost never a downside.

I imagine to a certain degree that concept is similar in the investment space. Watching how you and Feld operate over the past couple of years, I have yet to be surprised in the investments you choose.

After all, if you cant grow to "crush" on something before investing, whats the fun in investing in the first place?

As one of the first people to use Foursquare and really help promote it at SXSW08, I am excited and proud of Dennis and Naveen. They are amazing people, with an innovative product. Cant' wait to see whats next.
