Just do it
by oliI attended startupschool about a week ago and that was quite a blast. The folks at justin.tv and omnisio have got the video transcriptions up, definitely worth a watch.
I missed most of a couple of talks, and by Murphy’s law, they just so happened to be amongst the top 3 talks I wanted to hear; Paul Buchheit and Paul Graham. We had a production server outage, so I was furiously competing for router time with 400 other geeks (and PG during his talk… XD).
I did, however, manage to catch this quote from one of PG’s slides:
A good plan, violently executed now, is better than a perfect plan next week. George S. Patton US general (1885 - 1945)

Wonderful hacker gathering and awesome pre- and post- parties. Much love for SUS. See you next year.
P.S.: We got that production issue fixed. Phew! I miss the ops guys @ Tucows
