The first thing I do most morning is check #discover in Twitter. This morning I saw this in my feed:
In conversation w/VC Bill Gurley/Benchmark Capital [six short easy videos. he & I talk VC, startups & @uber gigaom.com/2012/12/11/bil… @bgurley
— Om Malik (@om) December 11, 2012
Bill Gurley and Om Malik are two people that I deeply respect. They are thoughtful and have been in the game for a long time. They know their stuff and they focus on what’s important.
There are six videos up on GigaOm, each about five or six minutes long, that captures a conversation they had recently. I encourage everyone to watch all of them, but this one is my favorite. It’s about nine minutes long even though the player says 17mins. Bill is such a great analyst and historian of our business. And he’s 100% correct as well.
I am going to put this quote on my office wall:
“You can’t make money with a consensus accurate prediction”
I just love that way of thinking.
