This week’s schedule

November 27, 2006 By

Today: off to see Cardiff for family day.
Tuesday: traveling to London in the afternoon, speaker dinner in evening.
Wednesday: speaking at Online Information 2006 in London. Girl Geek dinner in evening.
Thursday: hanging out at Online Information 2006. Meeting with Microsoft’s accessibility team, then getting a tour of BBC around 5 p.m. Evening open so far.
Friday: breakfast with Sam Sethi of UK TechCrunch, then meet the geeks in Hyde Park. Hugh Macleod suggested meeting by the Eros statue because it’s near the Piccadilly Circus tube station. We’ll walk around, visiting tourist spots and pubs. Hugh says we’ll be “pissed as newts.” Oh, boy, that should be good for a Flickr scandal. In the evening Sam is taking us to two parties (the Firefox one, and Internet People’s Party).
Saturday: we fly to Amsterdam where we’ll stay until December 5th, when we fly home.

Anyone want to meet up? The schedule is getting tight, leave a message here and we’ll fit you in.

    Are you meeting at Hyde Park or Piccadilly Circus (the statue of Eros)?

    There’s some distance between the two…

    If Hyde Park then you need to pick a location on the boundaries – its a big space (-:

    Murph: hmmm, the way Hugh was talking Eros is near Hyde. Let me verify it with Hugh, and we’ll post the exact location we should meet later in the week.

    hey Robert

    being a Scot I’m terribly disappointed you are not going to visit Scotland. The one of the finest countries in the world. Anyway, have a nice time in Europe. I’ll forgive you this time ;-)

    Hi Robert.

    Will you be busy in Amsterdam? A geeky pub crawl there sounds like a good option. I was thinking of getting some UMPC geeks together. No cameras allowed ;-)

    Regards
    Steve.

    Hopefully be able to catch up with you at the conference on Weds. Friday also sounds tempting, especially the ‘pissed as newts’ part.

    I’d like to show you a cluster web page publish software. It is very easy for normal person to set up hierarchical knowledge base,just like MSDN or IBM’s online reference(tree structured navigation).
    It is the second phase development of Tablane TClipper(www.tablane.com).
    The beauty of the data structure in TClipper is that it roots from OPML file, to collection in RSS format and ends each page in HTML format. Alos, Tags as thread sews the pages together which belong to different branches.
    We may think this is next level of Office tool. Not just create single Word document or PDF file, you can create grouped web pages etc.
    Don’t know if you are interested.

    Subject: Equity Fingerprint Survey, Cambridge UK + Geoff Jones

    Hi Robert

    We met in London with Geoff Jones of Cambridge and a hundred other people so I am sure you remember me!!

    You are always writing about companies and high tech companies.

    We are running a survey to find out more about the changes in equity ownership as companies develop from the founding team and equity split to bringing in cash, managers and people; see below.

    Responses so far say we are unique.

    Take a look at http://www.equityfingerprint.com/ We are working on a study to see if the difference in the equity structures shows different growth patterns.

    There is not much data around but people need to know that site such as YouTube.com has sophisticated investors from the early days; but how much did the founders keep? What is the norm? In the UK we can get data from public sources but it is harder in the UK.

    You can see a great guide at http://www.redy.biz

    Keep well and I hope you liked that Cambridge scarf I sent to you.

    The names at the top are the MBA students running the EF Survey.

    Hi Robert – I know you’re running out of slots, but if you’d like to see what we’re doing over at Zopa.com drop me a line – we’re the worlds first lending and borrowing exchange. Maybe Friday morning?

    With impeccable timing we’re having some network problems right now – but we had a piece on the BBC prime time news last week that explains what we do – you can see it on YouTube here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D4vA6yDkr0A

    I’ll try to make the Friday pub crawl regardless!

    Cheers

    We’re meeting at Eros at Piccadilly Circus at 1pm. Hyde Park was an earlier idea, which we bagged eventually.

    They’re not really near each other. Eros is nice and central. It’s a traditional London meet-up spot.

    Congrats on the Amazon/Naked Conversations ping, Robert & shel.
