Been hustling like never before, and I thought years ago I was “making something happen outta nothing”. But seriously this week has been non-stop all action and I know my buddies keep asking me how things are going with the Chinaccelerator demo day,...
Sunday, the day I always get tons of work done. Making my week plan, catching up on emails, few phone calls. Also, realizing I will be heading to Beijing in a couple days (decided to leave on Wednesday night overnight train) – going to get to Beijing a bit...
Feels like I’m graduating college again or something! And wow, its been 90 days already since I started this Chinaccelerator program. Its been a wild rollercoaster (yes GOAT – geeks on a train, but also generally w/ the startup highs and lows) and...
All these events are happening in Shenzhen once I’m done w/ this Chinaccelerator! This is the exact same weekend as the Shenzhen startupweekend, but I will try my best to stop by on Saturday the 10th to see my old hero meets hero e-commerce friends (and...
Been up in Dalian, China for almost the full 3 months in Chinaccelerator, demo day is in 15 days…but I haven’t totally forgotten about Shenzhen! The organizing team of Shenzhen startupweekend (Kawai, Nik, and myself) are back at it, and GEW (global...
Been a long road, but I think some of my mistakes in life have been trying to do too many things at the same time. I will use this Sunday evening (liking to blog on Sunday evenings) to go through how in my lifetime, I have never really been focused on 1 thing,...
YOLO (you only live once) I have never been bungee jumping, and adding the extra risk of doing it in China, why not! What started as a normal Sunday afternoon, I went to a late lunch w/ Mark + YunChung and then decided it was such a nice day out to go for a walk...
I have been blogging for years, from my mobile phone, typing on trains with my bluetooth keyboard, but I think this is my first blog post I typed standing up!
After the Chinaccelerator 10 x 10 speaker series, one of the speakers in Beijing, Richard Robinson motivated...
I’m on a mission. I’m proud of myself…what I realize is no one is going to care more about anything except yourself. You have to want it, you have to want to win. You have to have vision.
I may test some relationships, but I am on a mission...
Always tempted to blog (used to blog almost every day, or at least every other day) but at least for the duration of this Chinaccelerator program I am going to blog less often – so that I can focus on product development for Weibo Agent.
Its a rainy, and...
As part of my trip to Beijing, this coming Monday Sept 17 I will speak at a Chinese SEO + SEM internet marketing conference. I have been asked to speak about how social media affects SEO, and integrating the 2 to optimize your search campaign.
This will be a...
Back to the heart of Chinese internet, feel sometimes like a lone ranger heading to a land many dare not to enter. Beijing is home of the majority of Chinese internet companies, and in order for my latest startup Weibo Agent to succeed, I need to have stronger...
Those who have spent any time in China have heard the term “Jia You” (means “Add oil” literally, but really means, keep going, don’t give up), and I am sure those Chinese who read the title of this blog post will be saying the same...
I think the number 1 feedback most friends would give me is if I focused on just 1 thing, I would be able to make that a huge success. I think it was because maybe I didn’t know what I wanted to do. Maybe because I was too “young and inexperienced”...
This Geeks on a train (GOAT) trip has been quite a rush! Getting back now to Dalian city of China (landed Saturday night) and spending Sunday catching up on emails, project meetings, and laundry!
GOAT (Geeks on a train) has been an amazing trip with the Chinaccelerator....
