Collective exhale day

Posted by jeff on Jun 27th, 2008

My birthday just ended (thanks for the beers Vikas, and the 'Say It Ain't So' Rock Band production), and I really lucked out because it coincided with the TechStars collective "exhale" day, which began last night at St Julien (thanks David and Howard for drinks), and continued with a poker tournament (congrats Austin, Aziz), and a little party with Sidney's and friends (nice handstand, Kayla). I don't know about everyone else, but I think relaxing feels a lot better when it follows several days of no-letting-up intense hyper-productivity (we haz buzzwords, as PSC would say).

Andrew Hyde recently put up a clip commemorating the first 30 days for the 2008 TechStars companies in Boulder. The ten companies have come a long way in a short time. In fact, so has TechStars itself: Check out David's post detailing the inception of TechStars. Here's my summary of how well he had it figured out:

"Hey d00d [David Brown], let's lure entrepreneurs to Boulder with couches and shit."

Just kidding, sort of. We love you David.

Here's Andrew's masterpiece, but check out more on the community site:
