ON BEING "AVC'd" BY FRED WILSON

THANK YOU

Wow! 

Really appreciate  the very kind words, Fred, not to mention the feedback on the design change.

I've got a long way to go, especially in terms of the reader conveniences that Fred has worked so hard on to incorporate on his blog. 

It's been the template I've tried to follow since starting this blog on February 14, last year.  As I said in my first post back then,

"So, welcome to mp.blogs.com.  It started as a lark, inspired by Fred Wilson's VC blog with the ultra-cool, and ultra-early avc.blogs.com".

Back then the white on black appealed to me primarily because it reminded me of the decades old IBM computer terminals that we used to learn programming.

I've been meaning to change the design for a while, but had put it off for one reason or another. 

It wasn't until Russell Beattie kicked me in the butt to change the design from black to white because "it was difficult to read" that I got around to doing some sprucing up. 

So thanks to Russell as well.

Again, a long way to go, and would appreciate any feedback/hints along the way.

dont' copy me too much.

i am envious of other blogs, like feld's which i think is the essence of what a semi-pro blog should be.

Michael way to go, I have to say this is much better on the eyes.

And the content, much better in the brain. :)
