Ever want to circle the globe? Shel Israel author of Naked Conversations and Rick Segal, a venture capitalist, are teaming up to do just that - circling the globe in 23 days. Here is what Shel has to say about teaming up with Rick for the journey:
We are coming from different perspectives. I'm a writer and hope that this journey will sell more of the book I wrote with Robert Scoble and give me a mountain of material for "Global Neighborhoods" my new book. Rick is a Canadian venture capitalist who would like to show that Silicon Valley is not the center of the universe. He's a champion of his adopted country in technology and has passion for tech companies germinating there. I believe that Silicon Valley remains precisely that, but the universe is expanding at such a rapid rate that being at the center is becoming less relevant.
I look forward to hearing about the journey on Shel's blog and in his new book...when it comes out. It sounds like a Shel and Rick excellent adventure.
