"Eating Our Own Dog Food" posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2008-10-10 03:25:18

As an early adopter. I usually "eat our own dogfood" as our companies get early betas etc. But as life gets more complex some of the more mission critical tasks I do won't brook too many crashes. This is especially true now that I'm on Vista and a reboot is 10 minutes or more. So I'd gotten somewhat out of the habit. Fortunately not completely so. This morning. I was searching for a CD by an obscure jazz singer. Looking on Amazon (often my first quick look) led to a $39.98 price for the CD which just seemed way out of line. Then I thought "I wonder what would suggest?" Full disclosure - Bigger Boat is a First Round Capital investment and I'm a board member. I had used it a year ago when we launched but got out of the habit. A quick search on instantly took me to an $8.90 download of the CD - a quick $31.08 savings! I've also been using the beta of which gives quite interesting information on my large (12GB) Outlook files. I've installed and uninstalled it twice but it's clearly moving forward and helpful. Now to start seeing what one of our newer investments can save me:) So yes it's a good practice for venture capitalists to eat our own dogfood. Not only can we better advise the companies often they can help us in the same way we hope they'll help all their other users. Hi Howard,This is Katie Eagleson the singer referred to in your story. I know that the price of CDs was not the point of your blog but I've been wondering why it's even LEGAL for somebody to charge that much on Amazon for my CD. I'm embarrassed by that. I hope no one out there falls prey. There are many other places to get it online that are reasonable. By the way.... I hope you enjoy the music!Katie What a spectacular example of the way Web 2.0 (whatever that is) is changing our world! Howard posts a blog entry about some neat new technology and as an example references an obscure jazz singer he likes. Katie Eagleson said singer has a Google blog alert running which tells her that she has been mentioned. She then leaves a comment on Howard's blog which in turn catches my attention and off I go to find a copy for myself (since we all know how good Howard's taste is :-). And of course. I'm going to use BiggerBoat to find a reasonably priced copy. This kind of interlinked interacting user-generated content and networking is the essence of this brave new world and I'm not sure that the effect of all this has truly sunk in yet even with those of us in the 'digerati'.. let alone the other 6 billion people out there. It's a new world and welcome to it! (And I can't wait to hear Katie's album...)

"Eating in Brussels" posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2008-01-08 00:13:24

It looks desire I ordain be tagging along with my husband for a business meeting in Brussels. Belgium at the beginning of November. We would like to do one study no-holds-barred wallet-be-damned meal while there. We plan on enjoying the beer and frites with cast aside as well and would be grateful for any suggestions as to where to go for both of these eating scenarios. Do yourself a advance and go for a meal at Comme Chez Soi located on displace Rouppe. I've only had a handful of life altering meals (Per Se. French Laundry. Robuchon in Macau) and Comme Chez Soi was one of them. They have a Chef's table located right in the kitchen which you should def ask about where you'll be able to see Chef Rigolet bring home the bacon his magic. If you can't make it for dinner. I denote they had a very affordable eat tasting menu too--something along the lines of 50 Euros per continue. Second Chez Soi -- it's a luxury and at the same time not to be missed. When we lived there it was the only Michelin-starred resto in Belgium -- a real sore point with Belgians who saw themselves as slighted by the French. come up be two tries harder and it's difficult to get a bad meal in Brussels unlike Paris. Once ate a killer spaghetti marinara for five Euros in a formica-topped fit off the Grand Place that looked to be run by Serbian mobsters. I'd forbid the "digest" as its so touristy as to have hawkers outside beckoning you in in fifteen languages which they try one after the other until people stop having heard their own tongue. The places we ate at were mainly in our move of the city but you can get the same wherever you go. Once we went to the Blue Elephant for a Thai eat on some holiday and it was fantastic food (considering how hard it must be to make good Thai food in Europe in the winter. It had an elevated dining room with tables at different levels which made each table more intimate with buffet and cooking stations set up on the different levels. It's at 1120 Chaussée de Waterloo. In walking distance from us was a displace called Pirate's Cove where we went for mussels and consume and an ace Portuguese restaurant up the hill. Really we didn't luck out with these; they were just the local joints that are sprinkled like culinary snow all over that gourmet's city. Greyhoundgrrl:I don't and couldn't find it quickly on the Internet. HOWEVER check out this cerebrate for the nearby Pirates Cafe (could swear it was Pirates Cove when we were there). First. Pirates gets a good analyse; but analyse out the link.
