I discovered Tim Oren's "Due Diligence" blog during the war, and I'm very glad I did. He works with Pacifica Fund, a Silicon Valley venture fund specializing in early investments in select, emerging information technology and materials science companies. What he does is therefore of interest for me on many levels, and I'm impressed by the fact that his blog is hosted on their domain.
Yesterday's entry threw a bit of a spotlight on nanotech's immediate future, via presentations from famous VC Steve Jurveston of DFJ and Dr. Eric Drexler of the Foresight Institute. As it happens, WIRED editor and book author Kevin Kelly was also there to ask the ultimate question of the day.

Here are some quick tips for adding simple Textile formatting to your comments, though you can also use proper HTML tags:
*This* puts text in bold.
_This_ puts text in italics.
bq. This "bq." at the beginning of a paragraph, flush with the left hand side and with a space after it, is the code to indent one paragraph of text as a block quote.
To add a live URL, "Text to display":http://windsofchange.net/ (no spaces between) will show up as Text to display. Always use this for links - otherwise you will screw up the columns on our main blog page.
