subject Need Bill as Chief Guest for event June 25
Jun 8 (2 days ago)

Hi Linda.

I just talked to Kevin at 212-222-7315 and he has suggested I email you since you are Bill's scheduler and then to call him back.

Bill is a friend of mine. I was Barack Obama's first full time volunteer in NYC, and Bill was the first elected official in the city to come for Obama. So we got to know each other pretty well. http://democracyforum.blogspot.com Check out the second video here http://democracyforum.blogspot.com/2007/11/new-york-city-for-barack-obama-1-10.html It is me capturing Bill at a Harlem event in 2007.

Well, I grew up in Nepal, and the Nepali leaders representing 100,000 Nepalis all across America are having a gathering in NYC on June 25, Saturday, and I would like to invite Bill to show up as our Chief Guest. We would be very happy to send a limo to pick him up and drop him off.

Internet Week: Day 4: Hectic Socializing


I have decided to spend all day tomorrow saying hello to as many people as possible at the Metropolitan Pavilion. That would be the red zone in this diagram. All it takes is that first hello and you end up meeting some amazing people, you end up having some amazing conversations, you end up establishing some amazing contacts. Another thing you do is you reconnect with people you already know. Some of that also happens.

My Web Diagram

To me it feels like I am committing to do something like this:

2000 Squats
Freehand Exercise: 1000 Push-Ups, 1000 Squats, 1000 Crunches

I am so looking forward to it. And I might show up early in the day.

Internet Week: Day 3: One Event


Internet Week: Day 3: Taking It Easy

8:36PM: Charity Water GalaImage by lizstless via FlickrI am staying away from the Metropolitan Pavilion today.

Paul Graham Now Has Disqus Integration At His Blog

photo of Paul GrahamImage via WikipediaI took Paul Graham to task in this blog post for not having a place for people to leave comments at his blog. It is not even a proper blog, I said. I made it into a little bit of an East Coast, West Coast thing like the rappers do. Of course I like Paul Graham plenty. I was just playing along.

Top VC Bloggers: The Numbers Don't Look Right

So it was great to note Paul Graham now has Disqus integration at his blog. The next thing would be for him to start blogging daily. I would show up if he blogged daily.

Paul Graham: Y Combinator
Paul Graham: Disrupt
Greplin: The First Y Combinator Company To Get Me Excited

I still think what Paul Graham has is a book, not a blog. It is not updated frequently enough to be called a blog.
