Most Useful Twitter Account to Follow: vctips

Amidst a river of mostly useless tweets, twitter account vctips stands out as a must read full of good to great nuggets of advice for entreprenuers thinking about venture capital.

It’s just starting out, but look at these tweets from some of the more respected members of the VC community:vctips

  • Don’t approach a VC directly unless you know him/her well — an introduction from someone the VC trusts will go a long way
  • Six slides is better than sixty and probably better than sixteen. Put all the detail in the appendices
  • As a picture is worth a thousand words, a prototype is worth a thousand slides. Show, don’t tell

Of course you can always conitnue to read tweets about how people are sleepy or just bored.
