I grew up in Kent, England. Moved to San Francisco, CA in 2010 to create Minomonsters. Aged 15, I sold a startup and began investing in other people’s ideas. I’m now CEO of MinoMonsters.

When you ask creative people how they did something, they feel a little guilty because they didn’t really do it, they just saw something. It seemed obvious to them after a while. That’s because they were able to connect experiences they’ve had and synthesize new things. And the reason they were able to do that was that they’ve had more experiences or they have thought more about their experiences than other people.”<br/><br/> - <em><a href="http://blogs.wsj.com/digits/2011/08/24/steve-jobss-best-quotes/">Steve Jobs</a> (via <a href="http://jasonputorti.com/">putorti</a>)</em>http://joshbuckley.net/post/9373519996http://joshbuckley.net/post/9373519996Thu, 25 Aug 2011 14:12:15 +0100steve jobs<iframe width="400" height="299" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/qLci5DoZqHU?wmode=transparent&autohide=1&egm=0&hd=1&iv_load_policy=3&modestbranding=1&rel=0&showinfo=0&showsearch=0" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe><br/><br/><p>The Great Dictator </p>http://joshbuckley.net/post/7674502952http://joshbuckley.net/post/7674502952Sat, 16 Jul 2011 04:09:42 +0100<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_llx7cfJdu41qgzgcyo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p><a href="http://inthemirror.tumblr.com/post/5949390596">inthemirror</a>:</p> <blockquote> <p><a href="http://nous-sommes-les-belles.tumblr.com/post/5947722339">nous-sommes-les-belles</a>:</p> <blockquote> <p>Nob Hill, San Francisco (by <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/daveglass/3362499153/in/photostream">Dave Glass</a>)</p> </blockquote> <p>I love this city. </p> </blockquote>http://joshbuckley.net/post/5983326992http://joshbuckley.net/post/5983326992Mon, 30 May 2011 01:23:52 +0100“Life has become immeasurably better since I have been forced to stop taking it seriously.”<br/><br/> - <em>Hunter S.
