		<title>Eliminating noise &#8211; the learnings</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Back in November I decided to delete all the feeds in Google Reader besides friends&#8217; blogs, in order to eliminate noise and potentially decrease the time I spend reading news. Back then, I was spending about five hours per month reading random news and even though that&#8217;s just 15 minutes per day, I decided it [...]]]></description>

		<title>In awe</title>
		<description><![CDATA[This weekend, Forbes Romania&#8217;s first ever Top 30 Under 30 issue came out. I&#8217;m humbled and fortunate to have been selected as one of the 30, and I am happy to see many of my friends in it as well. While going through the list, though, something really surprised me. There are people on it [...]]]></description>

		<title>Ars gratia artis, no more</title>
		<description><![CDATA[A couple of months ago, I was trying to convince a friend that going to art galeries, museums and the opera can help him become a better entrepreneur. He argued that there&#8217;s absolutely no ROI for spending time in such places, that they bore him to death and he&#8217;d rather spend the little free time [...]]]></description>

		<title>It&#8217;s a Brainient New Year</title>
		<description><![CDATA[As you may have seen, we&#8217;ve raised $1.8M from a few fantastic investors, backers of companies like DataXu, AdSafe Media and RevenueMax. I&#8217;m thrilled and very excited, because I think 2012 will be the year advertisers start using video for more than just reach and eyeballs. My thesis around video is quite simple: all online [...]]]></description>

		<title>The rebirth of the mailing list</title>
		<description><![CDATA[&#8220;Does anyone want to come and speak at an event in Astana, Kazakhstan?&#8221; said an email in my inbox yesterday. Now that&#8217;s an offer you don&#8217;t get every day. What are the chances, really? But much to my amazement, someone who IS actually organising an event in Kazakhstan emailed Milo Yiannopoulos to come and speak. Milo [...]]]></description>

		<title>Planning your startup&#8217;s objectives, the Steve Jobs way</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Those of you who&#8217;ve read Steve Jobs&#8217; biography may remember the stories about his annual &#8220;company retreats&#8221; &#8211; trips organised in a remote location where his entire (management) team could focus on product, strategy and stay away from the day-to-day operations. While reading the stories when the biography came out, it seemed an amazing way [...]]]></description>

		<title>The Kernel &#8211; technology journalism for enquiring minds</title>
		<description><![CDATA[As many of you may already know, December saw the launch of The Kernel, a new technology-centric publication founded by one of London&#8217;s most vocal technology journalists, Milo Yiannopoulos (who&#8217;s name I still have to google whenever I write it but hey, nobody&#8217;s perfect &#8211; right?). The Kernel&#8217;s mission is nothing if not incredibly ambitious, [...]]]></description>

		<title>Keep Calm and Carry On</title>
		<description><![CDATA[A few weeks ago, I was invited to speak about my experience as an entrepreneur at Venture Connect, one of the few initiatives encouraging entrepreneurship in Romania. Inspired by the British Government&#8217;s 1939 &#8220;Keep Calm and Carry On&#8221; campaign, I put together the short presentation below (and I hope my Polish friends will not be too [...]]]></description>

		<title>Eliminating noise</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Back in July, I wrote about my discontent in regards to how much time I was spending on social media sites (approximately 15 hours / month, according to RescueTime). Just a little over three months later, through sheer will and brutal (self) finger slapping, I now only spend a little over four hours per month on what [...]]]></description>

		<title>3:30AM</title>
		<description><![CDATA[It was 3:30AM and I had just gotten back from a few drinks with Mike Butcher, Tarik Krim and a few other friends. I was having a glass of water and checking emails on my iPhone. No email caught my eye, so I opened Twitter to see what&#8217;s going on in the world. In a [...]]]></description>
