Seattle 2.0 Blog

    If you are a regular reader of this blog you know there isn't better event than when you have a lot of entrepreneurs together having fun. Here is where Poker 2.0 comes in. We play Poker, drink beer and chat w/ fellow entrepreneurs and investors.

    This event is organized by Bob Crimmins of iMedExchange and is pretty cool, so I strongly recommend to all entrepreneurs in town.

    Next instance will be this Wednesday (sorry for the short notice) at 6PM at their offices (in Seattle). The event is exclusive to founders, execs and investors. If you want to come send an email to Bob and he'll invite you (bob.crimmins - at imedexchange.com)

UPDATE: I'm crossing out the email addresses I've got.

    I'm trying to find the email addresses of a few founders/CEO from Seattle startup for [can't disclose it now]. You would think it's an easy task, but is not. Actually, I can find the email of any VC in town much more easily (thanks to theFunded).

    The worse part is that for some startups I couldn't even figure out the name of the founder or CEO through their website. Do you know how many opportunities you might be missing because of the barriers you are creating?

     Three startups I can't figure out who's the founder or CEO: Chatterous, SportsUltra and Urban Spoon. Many others I was able to find through LinkedIn.

     People that I'm looking for the email address (please, contact me): Michael Smith (Bag Borrow or Steal), Kal Raman (GlobalScholar), Curt Blake (GotVoice), Michael Robinson (IceBreaker), Jeff Seely (Jobster), Shirish Nadkarni (LiveMocha), Brian Lent (Medio), Anupam Gupta (Mixpo), Barry Henthorn (ReelTime), Bill Messing (Ripl), Andrew Wright (Smilebox), Tom Romary (Yapta), Eric Hertz (Zumobi) and the CEO of Chatterous, SportsUltra and UrbanSpoon.
