Anyone else ever have the thought cross their mind that 'Ron Conway' sounds like a porn actor name?

I think he would want to go by Long Ron Conway. I wonder what effect that would have on his investing career. I guess any nervous entrepreneur talking to him could just think "hey I've seen this guy naked."

Then he would not only feel nervous, but inadequate.

I think Conway needs to expand his metaphor repertoire a bit. Buzzwords as well - I think I'll be pretty good if I don't hear the phrases "added value" or "ocean's 11 team" for another weeek.

I was at this interview. Does anyone else here do ETL at Stanford?

Yup. Some great talks in that course. This one is average I think.
