We are hosting our next TechBoise event on April 29th (next Tuesday) at 5:30 at The Fixx on the corner of 10th and Bannock.
How can tech entrepreneurs effect politics?
We actually have a program (by popular demand).
I have asked John Foster, formerly the Editor of the Idaho Business Review Executive Director of the Idaho [...]
I missed this announcement somehow:

It’s nearing completion. Despite zoning battles, red tape galore and personal significant investment, Mark Rivers is almost ready to open the WaterCooler.
Mark let me wander through the building last week with my camera (sorry I’m no photographer). He also walked me down the row of nearly completed offices. All but two of them [...]
I have a small amount of blogs listed in the side bar here because I limit it to tech companies with blogs. But if you’d like a little shameless blog promotion that has nothing to do with the subject matter of your blog but rather the geographic region then go check out the American [...]

Twitter Lunch
If you’re on Twitter and in Boise you probably already know this but George Seybold has instigated a Twiter Lunch today at Old Chicago downtown. I don’t think they have any idea we’re coming so you’ll want to get there a little early.

When I said that Eddie was one of the few local reporters that ‘got it’ I was really only referring to Ken Dey. No one else covers as much local tech as they did. There [...]
Wow, I can’t believe it’s time for TechLaunch again. This was by far one of the coolest events I went to last year. I highly encourage you to check it out.

I received an email this weekend that saddened me.
After nearly two years with the Idaho Business Review, I’ve decided to resign my position and move on to new challenges. There were a lot of factors that went into this decision; no single event has led up to this point.
I’ll still be with the IBR [...]
