I had mine in 2006 at 32. Details http://davidcrow.ca/article/1130/barcamper

Make sure you go your an annual check up. Figure out how to get some exercise. And pay attention to the warning signs.

Worst part for me was the 8 hours waiting for troponin levels. Well and the angiogram/pasty/stent.


The article should have in the header a canonical URI that points to Jesse's original post. My bad if the template doesn't have this explicitly.


I like the idea of putting founders into a cyclotron, accelerating them to near the speed of light, and seeing what kind of energy they release when they collide with other founders.


But we should put them in inflatable sumo suits for cushioning. Maybe a helmet.


It's really clean. The LeapJS/AngularJS touchpoints look like they just make sense.


Looks very interesting. Similar but with additional widgets that aren't in TogetherJS. Interesting to use eventing model and tie it more directly to lead scoring and qualification.


I love all of the "arm chair CEOs" that assume by getting on a plane that they'll meet PMarcA in the SFO airport, they will raise $50MM on their idea and their good looks. Raising money is hard. Building a company is hard. It doesn't matter if it is in Toronto, Edmonton, NYC, Palo Alto, SF.


Seems to still be there according to LinkedIn http://www.linkedin.com/profile/view?id=12661295&locale=...

Copywriters and editors, they do good work...


I have had my say on the broker model http://startupnorth.ca/2012/09/26/brokers-smokers-and-midnig...

Which is different than pay to pitch. Pay to pitch is broken for investment. It works for PR and attention, I.e., Demo.com, but I hate it to get investor attention. The closest I've seen is incubator DemoDays, but the interests are in closer alignment.
