The Vermont Software Developer Alliance had a fantastic meeting yesterday with 3 bank presidents and a partner from a Venture Capital fund as panelists in a discussion of “Positioning your company to get financing and capital investment”. The room was packed with software business owners. While it was still somewhat fresh, I wrote down some of what I learned over here….

VPN is affected by the worm protection setting of NAV 2006. There is no obvious way to allow VPN unless you can figure out what app drives it. I googled and read other forum posts for quite some time tonight – most of them complaining, no real solutions.
So turning off the worm protection in NAV is the only way I have been able to be able to continue using VPN since I updated NAV.
As it took a while to find any other info about this, I thought I would blog it to save someone else some time.
When I first moved to Vermont in Sept 1999, there were 3 or 4 highway moose accidents reported within a few weeks. I have fretted about them ever since when I am driving at night. I don’t recall any bad accidents locally until seeing a news report today in the local paper. Some poor man was killed in a car accident on the highway near midnight last night.
My friends at Global Garage Sale outside of Burlington had an exciting day earlier this week when they sailed over the milestone of having sold over $1 million worth of other people’s stuff on eBay. They are one of the hottest drop-off stores in the country and are getting ready to start franchising because they have a business model that is not only successful, but very socially responsible as well and that is a great combination. The local news station did a big item on them. I was proud like I was their momma! 🙂
I was driving home earlier this week on Route 17, facing the green mountains in the late afternoon. There is a section of the road where you see a sweeping view of the mountains that is like a big bowl. In the afternoon, the sun is hitting this wall of mountains. The afternoon glow combined with the colors of the changing leaves made the range radiate from foot to peak, north to south – completely red.
I pulled into the parking lot of a gas station to take a picture although a good chunk of the view is chopped off from that vantage point. So imagine seeing about the same as this mirrored on the left. Additionally, by the time I stepped out of my car and turned my camera on, the cloud cover had impacted the astonishing effect I had been looking at as I drove up the road. Still, this is pretty, even if it doesn’t begin to capture what I was hoping to share. Most of this is Mount Abe, where we have gone hiking a few times recently.
