Moving and/or Shaking About Town

A very networky day so far. Lunch with an old colleague who seems is also well plugged in around the tech community. Lots of talk about ventures, and ideas and future projects. Who knows if either of us will ever do any of them.

Also met with a patent lawyer to compare notes and build a bit of a relationship for the future filing of some stuff. Seems a decent fellow, and there might be some low-cost filing opportunities in there somewhere.

Discussed also the opportunity for provisional filing. I'm aware of that approach - but it's not without its risks of course.

Then some interaction with the old corporate monster to close of some intellectual property stuff there as well. Not sure if the normal monitary stuff will come through but, if nothing else the extra item for my resume is worthwhile.

Even dropped by a bank on my way back to explore biz banking opportunities and got a freebie thumbdrive for my questions - suck-up bastards. :)

So overall, I feel like I've actually been doing stuff. Should do more yet though the day is getting later now. Next priority would be mid afternoon tea.
