This is my first post on the Spheer blog, so let me introduce myself. My name is Jeff and I live with James and Conway (for the most part) in the awesome city of San Francisco.
To start with, I think we have all made a lifestyle choice to be entrepreneurs, we certainly hope you have an interest in this topic because we will be telling a lot about our lives, our thoughts, and our values.
Work is fun for us, although we do like to change the scenery once in a while. James mentioned that I like coffee shops… well that’s a drastic understatement. I’m actually a coffee shop junkie – after I moved to the area, I tried out the 4 or 5 coffee shops near our house before settling down on my “favorite” one…It’s a Grind. They have very comfy chairs and tons of tables…and of’course wifi.
If you are ever near Washington street, hope to see you here

What is it like to be an entrepreneur you ask? Well, the first thing that messes you up is the sleep schedule. Take me for example, I didn’t hop in bed until 4am last night (or rather, this morning). Even then, I spent about 30 minutes reading this week’s Economist article about the Middle East peace conference before finally succumbing to fatigue. I didn’t get up until past 11 this morning which is typical since I usually need about 7 hours of sleep, otherwise I’m completely non-functional the next morning.
Conway, on the other hand, went to bed a bit before I did, and he woke me up banging on the keyboard in the morning. But apparently Jeff already disappeared by the time he got up. Jeff usually passes out (in his room, with the lights on) at midnight, and gets up super early in the morning (6 or 7ish) and goes to a nearby coffee shop to work.
For the past few days, I’ve been sleeping later and later. It would be interesting to see if our circadian rhythm would eventually sync up one of these days.
mongrels, slaves and python November 29, 2007

so what do these three things have in common? i have no idea. But I’m pretty sure they have something to do with a new Matrix movie coming out… -_- come on, really…who names these things. I have a finance/business background and I’m more than likely not to understand a good amount of the language that Jeff and James casually throw at each other. But still, why would anybody name ANYTHING a mongrel. Unless we were in the cast for the next Harry Potter movie, I’d put money down that the average Joe like myself would point and laugh at somebody who used these three words in their daily vocabulary. With that said, the three of us still had a really productive discussion over dinner tonight. Oh, did I mention Jeff got knocked out in his boxing practice today?
