Vivox Brings Voice to Virtual Worlds
In venture capital on August 31, 2007 at 3:33 pmA cool Boston startup called Vivox is helping bring voice into virtual worlds like Second Life. Just a few weeks back Second Life went live with this service, and, after working out a few kinks, seem to be having lots of success with it.
I’ll follow with a video blog post chatting with Rob Seaver and Monty Sharman from Vivox…
VCMike Goes Video
In venture capital on August 31, 2007 at 3:29 pmInspired by Kara Swisher, I’ve decided to start videoblogging.
After all, I figure, the people I meet tend to be alot more interesting than anything I might actually write.
So, starting now, I am going to start posting videos of folks who I think are interesting, and who I can sucker into talking to my flip videorecorder for a couple minutes.

In venture capital on August 30, 2007 at 5:45 pmAfter a glorious week on a small island in a big lake in Maine, we are back home, back in the saddle for the new school year, and for the post-labor day crush on the work front.
And, back to the blog.
Hopefully, you can expect more regular postings from here on in.
Mahalo Maui Surf Clinics!
In venture capital on August 11, 2007 at 4:04 pmA big Mahalo (thank you) to Kristin, Billy, Jason and Phil from the Nancy Emerson Surf School (aka Maui Surf Clinics). Thanks to their patience, humor, instruction and equipment 5 of the Hirshlands are now surfers!
On Vaca
In venture capital on August 6, 2007 at 10:26 pmBlogging has been, and will continue to be slow as I have headed to Maui with the family for some vaca.
If you want a good laugh, check out this video of me trying to surf earlier today — and very nearly ending up on the rocks!
