Robert.

I guess you're deep in the heart of Friday afternoon drinking. Good luck!
I have to apologise, Amsterdam isn't going to work for me. Blame Vodafone because gcal sync doesn't work on this network and I didn't know my daughter has TWO events this weekend.

I have a suggestion though. Hire bikes (when in Amsterdam...) and do a photo-blog bike tour. There's loads to photograph and plenty of Wifi around.
This is something I'm planning to do for a week next year. The Carrypad blogging bike tour. Just me, a bike, a 3G-capable UMPC and a solar panel!

So apologies again. Stay out of the wrong type of coffee shops!

Steve.

Hi Rob, would love to try and get the opportunity to meet you all on friday afternoon, somewhere... As I work in the area I thought I'd make a few suggestions for decent pubs in soho, just north of eros, heading behind the big visual ads in piccadilly circus. There's the coffee house pub on the corner of Beak Street and marshall street? There's endurance pub on berwick street which has great food at lunchtime? Across the road from endurance, is the blue posts on the corner of berwick and broadwick street... Finally there's always the sun and thirteen cantons pub opposite microsoft offices on great pulteney street?

Hello,

I will make the Friday pub crawl. Should be good even for a teetotaler such as myself. Actually, my sobriety will give me an excellent opportunity to document your drunken antics! You have been warned....

Robert - sounds good. Looks like you're free early / mid afternoon - when would be good? If you'd like some lunch let me know - there's a great pub 15 minutes walk away (The Havelock Tavern).

Cheers

Dave

Murph: yeah, we're meeting at the Eros statue.

Attilachordash: I can't meet on Saturday, turns out. We gotta be at Heathrow too early.

Simon: regarding Thursday evening, we'll be at Online conference (Olympia). Do you have a pub near there?

Remco and Steve: hmmm, we'll plan out Amsterdam shortly.

Yakov: what day? What time?

Wouter: what should we watch out for?

Johnny: I'd love to come to Scotland.

Darren: oh, please do! I should have brought mine.

Ian: definitely drop by and see us at the conference. Hopefully we'll be online there, since it's an Online conference.

Mike: I'm definitely interested. Can you come and see us sometime this week?

Philip: I'll email you.

Steve: looks like BBC tour is off, so we can definitely meet up on Thursday evening. We'll be in Olympia, can you come and meet us there?

Dave: I'd love to see Zopa. Friday morning is already busy. How about Thursday sometime? Can you come over to the conference and meet in the lobby or something like that?

Monkeyleader: yes, it's now Eros.

Re: This week’s schedule

monkeyleader — Tue, 28 Nov 2006 06:46:09 -0000

So venue for meet-up has changed ? Now Eros ?

Cool hope everyone can make it! :)

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.

Doh - forgot to say that we're just off Oxford Circus.

Re: This week’s schedule

Dave Nicholson — Mon, 27 Nov 2006 17:18:14 -0000

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/watc...

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

Cheers

Dave

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.equityfingerprin... 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 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.

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.

Steve: I'm all for a geek tour of Amsterdam. Yeah, no Flickr photos should be the rule!

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

Steve Paine — Mon, 27 Nov 2006 10:12:57 -0000

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.

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 ;-)
