Some of you may have noticed that I haven't posted over the past week and a half despite publishing an ambitious schedule (damn you scheduled posts!) for the blog on 8/29. The schedule called for 4 posts per week (who did I think I could be, Fred Wilson?) including weekly and biweekly series on current events, business, and finding a job. Why the sudden HP like change in direction? I've taken a "position" with www.letslunch.com to help them market their incredible product and to increase their user base in anticipation of expanding to new cities/countries. I sadly haven't had time for personal blogging while strategizing how to post four days/week, write their business plan, manage their social media presence, recruit brilliant talent, help raise capital, and everything else associated with running an early stage startup.
I'll be posting whenever I feel inspired and have time to discuss current events or to provide business advice for the foreseeable future. That includes my series on finding a job in NYC. I'll look to put that series together in the fall when I hopefully have landed in a new city (whether that be NYC, Boston, DC, etc). However, I may actually stick to starting the series of interviews that I mentioned in the Plan as it will be a great way to connect with new people I meet on my adventures. Keep an eye on Twitter and Linkedin as I'll be sure to push updates when I manage to muster up a blog.
I WILL be keeping a more personal Tumblr dedicated to my new diet and exercise routine which could be quite entertaining. It should be a little easier for me to post pictures with captions and smaller updates on Tumblr than it would be trying to write 3-4 column style posts per week on Thoughts. Just another attempt to stay current and hopefully share my wisdom with whomever cares to read.
Who knows, maybe I'll post even more now that I don't have a schedule to keep.
You should definitely register for and try LetsLunch if you're in NYC or Silicon Valley. It's a great tool for expanding your network or when starting from scratch in a new city like I recently did. We're looking to be live in other major cities over the next 3-6 months but want to get the product right before we scale out of control.
