Brave Tech World

    Great news. Sampa and yours truly have been featured on the Seattle Magazine on an article about Seattle (of course) and Web 2.0. Please, buy a copy instead of reading it online. :)

    Anyway, it tells a bit about all the people building the new wave of companies in Seattle and all those crazy ideas.

    Besides me, Douglas Gantenbein also interviewed great names of Seattle's startup scene, like Suresh Kotha (professor at UW), Jonathan Washburn (ActiveRain), Oren Etzioni (CS professor at UW), Tom Alberg (Madrona), Glenn Kelman (Redfin) and Dan Shapiro (Ontela).

    Sampa is looking for a Flash developer to do some work for us. This is a part-time/contractor work and the main task is to create a new Family Tree module for us to replace/augment our AJAX-based Family Tree.

    Let me now if you know of someone that is great at creating amazing Flash apps. We want to hear from him/her.

    I'll be attending the Poker 2.0 tomorrow with a few other cool (influential, maybe?) people from the Seattle startup community. Don't miss it.

    My friend Nathan Kaiser is organizing a nPost Happy Hour Pub Crawl next Friday (5/16/2008). They'll go from bar to bar and Twitter as they move along. Who said is all work and no play in startupland?
