Traffic on 101 came to a serious halt this morning, so I was a few minutes late, and took advantage of a hot cup of coffee, and a flat panel TV to watch an excellent presentation by Vinod Khosla on ethanol and then a panel on “home runs in the VC business.” Sometimes the content at events like this is so excellent, that I have to sit back, watch, and just enjoy the richness of the thinking.

Scrapblog…on line scrapbooks. What will be the evolution of photosharing. First site that combines photosharing and blogging. Wouldn’t be a scrapbook if you couldn’t add the balloons. Kind of like a rich media blog.
