I was on the phone with Ben from TechRockies today. Ben was asking me a few questions about my blog and why I write it. He said “You’re sort of the TechCrunch of Colorado, huh?” I told him that was overly flattering and that I don’t do nearly as good a job as those guys. But yeah, I guess I’m doing something similar for Colorado.
Then, tonight, I read this post on Arrington’s CrunchNotes blog basically describing today as his worst day ever for various crazy reasons. Mike said:
“I can’t believe blogging hasn’t driven me to drink yet. I wish it was still just about meeting entrepreneurs and writing about their companies, but those days are long gone.”
Ah, this is the life.
Funny stuff. About every three months I long to move back to SF, then I read this and remember why I left.
Good point, David. You couldn’t pay me enough to move to CA, personally. It’s prettier, cheaper, and mellower here in Boulder.
BTW, a few months back I started a Front Range Blogger meetup group. Our next meeting is in January. I’d love it if you (and any of your readers who are so inclined) could stop by.
Here’s the Meetup group, where you can join for free and find all the info:

Thanks, and I hope we get to meet sometime! We know a lot of the same people, I think.
