The French Funny Guys

Just came across this post by Marcel de Ruiter. It’s not a profound post, but sure struck a chord with me. 1. The shows that are put together for Loic.tv (Seesmic Day xx: topic) are endlessly entertaining. And 2. they provide key insights into how to start a company. It’s like when my kids play games that teach them about math. They are having so much fun, they forget they are learning things. We are having so much fun being entertained by Vinvin and Loic, that we aren’t realizing that they are putting into practice the idea of a company being transparent, built in the open.

I was going to write which rule this applies to in Loic’s recent “10 rules to launch a startup today” but pretty much every rule applies to what I’m describing here. So Seesmic is, in a way, a running example of the things Loic believes in.

He’s having fun, we’re having fun, but if we take a step back, there are lots of lessons to be learned here.
