  1. Wondering if GBP/USD is going to get back above 1.70 any time soon.
  2. RT @TechCrunch The Government Comes Through For Tesla With A $465 Million Loan For Its Electric Sedan http://bit.ly/102fDD
  3. Learnt some new things about wind power at the RTEC meeting this morning. Always a great discussion forum.
  4. My favourite chapters of "Outliers": "The ethnic theory of plane crashes" & "Rice Paddies & Math Tests". Thought provoking stuff.
  5. "Three qualities work has to have to be satisfying: autonomy, complexity, & a connection between effort & reward" (M. Gladwell, "Outliers")
  6. On a reading binge this weekend. Just finished "The Search" by John Battelle. Highly recommend it.
  7. 24 hours into using Google Latitude. Decent accuracy when stationary, pretty slow to update when moving from one place to another.
  8. About to commence my quarterly "tweet more often" effort.
  9. Just listed myself in the http://localtweeps.com local Twitter directory in ZIP 27701
  10. Matthew Nordan speaking at the NC Nanotech event: "the locus of innovation is shifting from information technology to physical sciences"
  11. RT @guykawasaki http://ow.ly/1bGS Teens capture images of space with £56 camera and balloon. Very cool!
  12. Exploring twitterkeys for emoticons...not convinced yet. Anyone know of anything better? ☺
  13. very common apparently
  14. Tim draper is singing on stage...
  15. en route to SEVC
  16. Finding it hard not to feel very irritated by the local leafblower. Leafblowing is smelly, extremely noisy, and IMHO totally pointless.
  17. Thinking through some questions for a panel I'm doing at the NC Nanotechnology Commercialization Conference in a couple of weeks
  18. A 7.30am tee time is early, especially the day the clocks change. Well worth it.
  19. Jamming to funky house collection 08
  20. Over the last 15 yrs, 25% of VC backed startups in the US were founded by immigrants
