The Google Car

Driving a car is just a whole bunch of information processing, if you think about it, like Google did. It is not that big of a leap for the search giant that has long sought to "organize the world's information."

A tech startup with a half million dollar budget could not have attempted this. One thing very impressive about Google is when it was small it tackled small things, when it became big it started looking at big problems. It has innovated at scale. Not that search is small. It is bigger than the car. But you know what I mean.

This car will eliminate stupid road accidents. That's a big one.

Reading Every Comment

Fred Wilson writes great blog posts. His style of writing is remarkable. He naturally speaks simply and clearly. That is no small feat for someone who deals with some very complex technology for a living. But as impressive as his blog posts are I think where he truly shines is in his dedication to read every comment anyone ever leaves at his blog. Fred Wilson has not been able to read every email in his inbox in years. But he reads every comment left at his blog. Now you know how to get hold of him!

Fred Wilson: Reading Every Comment

I read every comment left on AVC. .... The community here is large and engaged. They can have a great conversation without me. .... I have long made peace with not reading every email that is sent to me. I bet I don't read more than 25% of the emails sent to me these days. I still manage to read every email my wife and kids send to me. And I still manage to read most of the email my colleagues at USV send to me. And I still manage to read most of the email our portfolio companies send to me. Beyond that, it's a crap shoot
