The Seattle Times gives me an extra job

I have had lots of experience with the media (just google my name). It is a tortured relationship and a very complex process. I am actually amazed how the news gets done on a daily basis with all that needs to be pulled together. This morning the Seattle Times reported on my new blog NWVentureVoice in a very positive way. So positive that they gave me credit for two jobs! Venture Parnter at both Ignition Partners AND OVP. The typo is understandable as it is Dave Chen at OVP and I who had the idea to get the thing started. I am going to have some explaining to do at the partners meeting!

Politics aside, some venture capitalists are getting into the blogging act. Martin Tobias, a partner at Ignition Partners and OVP Venture Partners, both located in the Washington State, has started a blog, www.nwventurevoice.com, The Seattle Times reported. "The site is modeled after the valley's VentureBlog, at www.ventureblog.com, down to the taglines. ... Tobias, who started Seattle-based Loudeye, doesn't appear to be slowing down, though he says he'd like more VCs to participate in this new venture. 'Want EVERYONE in the NW to post. There are a couple posts in the works,' he wrote in an e-mail."
