I have been evangelizing to founders for years to be more thoughtful about how startups update investors and run board meetings so I would be pretty hypocritical if I wasn’t willing to try and be more effective myself. In Los Angeles the venture community is very collaborative. So we planned a Technology Summit.

Sometimes, Ill use LinkedIn to contact my network, but mostly I still just go to their profile and email them. When I recently was looking to find people who had experience with using social networks to reach people for what might be considered guerilla marketing efforts, again LinkedIn worked great.

He said yes, so I found myself in Los Angeles during the first internet boom. But in between he was CEO of Revolution Health, and he introduced me to Aaron Batalion and the other founders of Hungry Machine when they left Revolution to go out on their own. So we didn’t invest but kept in touch and I tried to be helpful.
