Join the LinkedIn group to get the meeting schedule, and both confirm if meetings are happening and RSVP. With your printed ticket, security at the entrance would let you past the rope and up the stairs you needed to wind your way back to the theater. Attire ranged from t-shirts and jeans to button-up shirts with coats, with a handful of some funkier attire. Send me your new, updated, or reviews of networking events and organizations. The Notable & Where I'm Going... Tell them you heard about it from Todd's blog! I'll be speaking (yes, yours truly) on “Effective Networking for Entrepreneurs” at the GroundUP Business Group 's Tuesday, March 9th 7-8:30pm, at Zephyr Coffee House, 2419 E Colorado Blvd, Pasadena, CA 91107 .

But if you are new to the business, how do you get started? ended up arriving early and was greeted by two other attendees so we networked, of course. At the official start time, there were only 12 people. The High Speed Networking seemed to start late but there were two dozen or more participating (including about 6 women). Weekly updates! Please let me know if know of other items to add, or if you have any feedback on events. Sorry for the delay, but this Update is BIG!! Follow these links to find the updates, and follow further for the full listings.

I’ve recently had a chance to reconnect with Eric David Greenspan ( LinkedIn , Twitter ) He’s the CEO of Make It Work a high quality, personal, high touch technology service provider for homes and small businesses. He’s done several startups and is a board member of the Technology Council of Southern California (which is where I met him originally). A great opportunity for more visible networking . I roughly know about MakeItWork, but tell me a bit about where you spend your time day-to-day. A typical day starts with email, Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter, and Yammer checks/updates.

Last week my team was reviewing our upcoming event calendar and the subject of PerfectBusiness.com’s “ Perfect Pitch 2009 ” event came up. It’s the definitive resource for technology news and insight for three reasons:
We start with socalTECH first, each and every time.
This event is perfect for us – thousands of entrepreneurs and a list of business leaders that reads like Fast Company and Forbes had a love child. Richard Branson is the keynote speaker, which in itself is enough to warrant the near $300 ticket.

One that has stuck with me for a long time, and that I believe is something that all startup owners ought to be aware of, or anybody for that matter, is something I’ll call The Red Zone Effect.
Basically, we’re all in the startup game because we’re ambitious, motivated, talented and competitive, or some combination of those things. You want to get out of that uncomfortable negative The Red Zone Effect

This might be extra work and, depending on your resources and the size and value you derive from your list, cost prohibitive, but your users will surely appreciate getting this information in the way that they prefer, and they know better than any study what their schedule is like and how important your information is to them.

- How often you should mail to your audience is a tricky question. Every audience is different, but more importantly, every user is different (unless your users are Agent Smith from The Matrix, or Oompa Loompas,

In March 2007, when Pownce launched, Twitter didn't have much of a head start. think, if I were to do a new start up or a different company, I would pick it in an area where there wasn’t such good competition, determined competition. think there is definitely different levels of start ups and Twitter was definitely (laughs) a good start up, and it's really hard to compete or be compared to.
We talked about more than Pownce and Twitter in this interview. Leah Culver is a developer who launched many projects.

The topic is: Betting Your Company On An Internet Platform? A very interesting topic, especially for those of us involved in developing for start-ups. The basic conclusion was that it was a bit premature if you were talking about a serious, funded start-up. They also are VERY interesting for background processing tasks that take compute resources or from a storage cloud standpoint. I'm blogging from the CalTech Enterprise Forum . At the CTO Group that I organize in Santa Monica, we've had lots of discussions around this.

started out with a handful of dimes making cold calls from a phone booth in Grand Central Station. was on the way back to LA from a ski vacation in Switzerland where I decided while sliding down a glacier that if I survived I would start my own advertising agency. We've been through a number of down business cycles, recessions, tech wrecks, the dotcom crash, and other burst bubbles and are still around to tell the tale. So cheer up everybody, this too will pass. The I've known Farida for quite a while. Maybe ten years.
