Thank you
When we started Bawte, all I dreamt about was landing that first huge whopper of a customer. I remember landing our first customer with my last business quite vividly. It was Estwing Hammer. They called up and left our sales person a message saying they would like 1 of what we were selling. At that point we were elated and scared. Elated because that is what you dream of. Scared because, now what do you do?

The upside of the lack of privacy
A guest blog post from Christian Renaud originally posted to his blog on January 21, 2009.
There are good things and bad things when discussing the trade-off between privacy and transparency. Back in the days when I frequented many a Santa Fe Institute lecture, there was lengthy discourse about The Beer Game, which simulates a distribution system for beer sellers with knobs to allow for certain levels of transparency from retail to distribution to wholesale. The point of the exercise is to determine 'How much transparency is too little, and how much is too much'. If you don't expose your retail demand in a timely fashion, you end up having no inventory. If you expose too much, you end up 'flapping' your distribution chain with wild inventory swings.
I think back on this exercise frequently when it comes to the Internet+Social Media, and the blood/brain barrier of privacy and transparency. Should I share my trip details, or keep them private? What efficiencies (e.g. catching dinner with friends also in town) do I miss by omitting my travel plans from my blog, etc...
