As many of you know I am a huge fan of Lean Startup Machine. I first participated in LSM the summer of 2011 in NYC and after that I was hooked. I became a mentor and have had a blast over the last couple of years mentoring teams as they go through the weekend experience. It’s intense, you honestly learn what takes most people 6-8 months to learn and you do it all in a weekend.
Also, as many of you know, Fashion Metric was born out of Lean Startup Machine and Daina won the very first LSM in LA. Needless to say we see the value in LSM, it has changed our lives and we’ve seen it changes the lives of many others.
Now Lean Startup Machine is holding its largest event ever this coming weekend in San Francisco – LSM Ultimate. Early bird tickets are available until EOD today so if you’ve been thinking about going now is the time to do it! LSM did an awesome video that gives a nice window into the experience, you can watch it below:

I finally saw the Steve Jobs movie over Thanksgiving and afterwards saw a few additional interviews / videos of his life – very interesting.
