I wanted to quickly give some linklove to Furqan Nazeeri, a former EIR from Softbank who’s been writing some great stuff on raising money. His blog is at Altgate.com, and the RSS feed is here.

He recently made a list of his popular posts which I’ll list below here:

  • Andrew, thx for the props. You're my Robert Scoble. ;-)

    Rafer, I've been called a lot of things (with a name like mine you get used to it), but biased toward VCs is not one of them. Congrats for being the first! ;-)
  • Not intending to offend or namecall. I just really think that about a quarter of your points lead to first-time entrepreneurs wasting years of their lives in bad deals.
  • No offense taken, although I wish I had a 0.750 batting average my first time around!
  • As do I. .250 would have looked good at certain points, however don't underestimate the people who will take your hints as gospel and get hosed as a result. With our scars comes more than a little responsibility.
  • Wow, Andrew, you too? The person on the other side of the negotiation (even theoretically) is exactly the wrong place to go for this sort of guidance.
  • EIR != VC ;-)
  • Walks like a duck....

    It's Stockholm syndrome at the very least.
  • lol rafer = smartass ;-)
