Taking transparency to a new level

University of Texas business student Neville Medhora is pretty transparent about his revenue sources: On his blog, he lists all 36 sources, including total amounts earned, as a running tally since Jan. 1, including his year-end goals.

That's bold, even for a college student. The line-item revenue goals at companies are often CIA-level secret, sometimes for no apparent reason.

On his blog, Neville explains how he crashed a early-stage investment conference last month (as opposed to backstage at a Sum 41 show) and hung out with Herb Kelleher.

That tells me two things about Neville's future business career:

1. He will probably Napsterize his knowledge and data prodigiously, making communication with him easier and faster (good)
2. He is a calculated risk-taker (also good)

Neville's got moxie and is someone to watch (unless you're part of security at an investment conference).
