Also, I got to meet Chris Hughes at a Union Square Ventures 'Hacking Education' event in early March, and was really impressed with his background (obviously); I think his considered approach is going to take him far (i.e. he didn't do a lot of talking; rather, he was listening and thinking -- that suprised me, in a 25-year-old :-) ) Onward, Dave Hey Bob,

First — it was great meeting you in person at the Seattle xConomy event — I’ve been a big fan of Greg Huang and xConomy over the last 1+ year, so congratulations on your continued progress.

Also, I got to meet Chris Hughes at a Union Square Ventures ‘Hacking Education’ event in early March, and was really impressed with his background (obviously); I think his considered approach is going to take him far (i.e. he didn’t do a lot of talking; rather, he was listening and thinking — that suprised me, in a 25-year-old :-) )

Onward,

Dave

It's interesting how someone like Hughes can be considered such an expert at the ripe old age of 25 and two ventures he's worked on. It shows that the nature of the experiences can create a compressed learning curve for some specialized skills and vision. Great write up Bob — looking forward to see this column evolve.
