Bristol Open Coffee was buzzy
Team Rubber were out and about at Bristol Open Coffee last night. Conversations included:
- OK Cool’s neat Facebook Music Wall app. Made me think about how we (Team Rubber) don’t build quick businesses to flip on a wave. We’re focussed on long-term value, but it’s great to see other people working hard to catch a trend, it’s an intelligent way to do business
- UWE’s upcoming web design day (student-organised - good effort guys)
- Python and other programming animals. Curly braces - are they needed if you’re indenting code anyway?
- The Bristol Project: how do we build at least one web startup to a significant exit within 3 years?
- Online social networks: have we evolved the manners and etiquette to suit?
- Mobile apps & services
- Heidigger, phenomenonology, and the relation between action and language for AI
- Horse-riding makes you hurt in previously unknown muscle groups
- Web 1 (big) business cards (like mine) versus web 2 (moo) business cards (like everyone else - except Dan Dixon whose biz cards are sized to be monstrous and amusing)
- Barcamp upcoming in Bristol
Next open coffee will be in about a month - listing will be on Simon’s site.
