As I’ve noted on Twitter… my general absence, missed deadlines, and canceled meetings last week were due to me being sick.

I did get better just in time for our first local meetup. But, I have relapsed.

The good news is that it’s a minor case of bronchitis, as confirmed this morning… caused by the cold I had last week. It’s being treated, and I should be over it later this week.

No, I don’t believe in giving five minute updates on personal health. But, any key person at a startup going MIA has an immediate effect. Controlling, understanding, and containing that effect with your team (and when it spills over into the public) is critical for any business.
