Did you go to Startup Weekend in San Diego?  Bummed I missed it, looks like it was a great turn out.  I was busy at the Lean Startup hackathon in Boston, where we award companies for "getting out of the building?"  I say we bring one of these to SoCal.  Would you go if one was at the CoLoft in LA?  If you are interested, please let me know!

Meanwhile, check out this week's events in San Diego!


San Diego StartupDigest is curated by:
Brant Cooper - Author of the Customer Development Book

"Who the hell wants to hear actors talk?"—The infamous 1927 proclamation madeby movie mogul, H. M. Warner of Warner Brothers.

As with any technology newcomer there were similar naysayers for color TV and most recently, high-definition TV. Well, actors do talk in movies, color TV is ubiquitous and the HD retail business is thriving. Progress marches on and the consumer remains unfazed by a few in the media who mistakenly consider going against the burgeoning 3D trend as, somehow, chic.

Come join the discussion about the 3D TV trend.
