Short little rant about VC’s on www.postget.com. Some of it’s obvious (but still good) advice — don’t use the same lawyer as your VC, for instance.

Big Co guys can bring a breadth of experience, and vision, that small company people just don’t have. See Paul Russo’s comments in this morning’s Ottawa Citizen about thinking small.
Alec Saunders is the Vice President of Developer Relations for BlackBerry make Research in Motion. This is his personal blog, with his personal viewpoints. Prior to this Alec was the CEO and co-founder of Calliflower — the easiest way to hold a meeting, online, on a conference call, or on the go. A double-decade veteran of product management and marketing, he spent nine years at Microsoft where he helped launch Windows 95, the first two versions of Internet Explorer, the Universal Plug and Play initiative, the push into home markets, opt-in email marketing and what might well go down in history as the very first direct email list ever.
