OpenCoffee for founders tomorrow in Cambridge

Picture_33
Just a reminder that if you've got a pre/early launch startup and are looking for partners, that's the focus of tomorrow's OpenCoffee in Cambridge. More info at Going.com -- come by anytime between 8:30am (for early risers) and 10:30am (for coming in after traffic).

By the way, if you haven't checked out Going.com lately, I really like what they've been doing over there. The new hangouts feature is much more how I think about locations (versus events), and the "people like you" is a nice touch. They've become my top source for off-the-beaten path hip events when I'm in NY, where they have an awesome community.

What makes a Social Game, a social game? It's been a little frustrating to watch as the term Social Gaming is being applied to practically everything on a social network - so much so that even single player games on Facebook are now "social games." The folks at GigaOm have been pinging me about writing an editorial for a while, and this topic seemed worth starting a wider dialog about, so here it is: What makes games social? (GigaOm)

Harvard panel on non-competes and the example of Turbine I wasn't able to make the event at Harvard about non-competition agreements recently due to my second kid being born, but wanted to share Scott Kirsner's coverage of the event: Harvard prof. Lee Fleming said that people and ideas move from states that enforce non-competes to states that don’t (think California.) His research has found that non-competes squelch employee mobility by about 20 percent, and 30 percent for experts in a given field. Fleming asked whether non-competes might stifle the reallocation of the best people to the best business opportunities. A great example of this effect just came to my attention. It turns out that Turbine has been trying to introduce new non-competes. Now, I haven't actually seen the agreements...
