FoodSpotting Day: Thoughts

Image via CrunchBaseI have been fascinated by FoodSpotting. I am not exactly a meat and potatoes kind of guy, but I am only slightly above steamed broccoli. I would not describe me a foodie. I come from a country of subsistence farmers. I am sufficiently into food, don't get me wrong. But my fascination with FoodSpotting has been what it has meant as a tech startup, best caputured by a phrase I coined, that FoodSpotting is the next FourSquare. It is the leader in the what after check in space. It inhabits the royal vertical in that space.

The Gotham Gal

I like Fred Wilson plenty as is, and I have been profuse in my praise for him at my blog and in the comments sections of his blog. But then I got to meet the Gotham Gal, and that is what cemented it for me. That is when I realized I really, really want this guy on my Board. He is a big shot. I might or might not get him. But I am going to leave no stone unturned to get him. I decided.
