Thanks for inviting me, Trudy. Becoming an Xconomist is an ordeal by fire, years of training, proven ability to miss deadlines.

Really, we try to find people who bring diversity of opinion, insight, and special expertise in technology, business, science, and other fields.

Hi Robert-

Nice recap. Good luck with Xconomy– I have been reading now for a couple months and find it helpful to see what is happening locally in other industries.

The question “What do you do that makes you an interesting person?” I don’t think its the what you do…but how you do it. I’m also more interested in people’s thoughts or ideas rather than if they played golf or traveled somewhere.

Jorge,

Nothing directly, but I think they got a lot of people talking to each other and gave us all food for thought.

One thing I think could be added to the definition of a good entrepreneur is someone who listens to others, takes in new ideas, and adapts them to what he or she is doing—or uses them to inspire new ideas.

It is great to sea this summary on Xconomy, I have attended several of Trudy’s events and I was looking forward to this one but unfortunately travel did not permit.

Did anything come of answering the three questions?
