Anybody remember this famous article from circa '99?
It was an "old-school" engineering type VC writing about how back in his day ventures were seen as co-creation activities and how now VCs talk a lot of "value added" but usually wind up not working hard enough to make a difference and instead prefer being seen at the right gyms, the right restaurants, the right trade shows, etc.
Basically his point was in his day he was so busy he had no time to "network" and wonders where modern VCs find they time they claim they devote to helping their investments develop.
Anybody remember this article? It was widely circulated circa 99-2000, I must have gotten "read this" emails about it from 20-25 different people.
I tried googling every variation of the term I can think of but can't seem to get what I'm looking for ...
