Startup Gauntlet Gets You Into Startup Riot

Okay, folks in an effort to encourage more people to get their pitches reviewed by other folks I’m extending an offer for all of the monthly winners from October (in just a few days!) to January of Startup Gauntlet to get an automatic pitching slot at Startup Riot. Yes, that’s right. You don’t have to get a deck together just for me (although your eventual deck for Startup Riot must adhere to Startup Riot rules) and you don’t have to worry about coming to one of the Startup Riot pre-screenings. So go register and work on your pitches!

My BarCamp Atlanta Presentation

I had a really great time at Atlanta BarCamp 2. Major kudos to Michael Mealling for taking the bull by the horns and organizing.  Those on Twitter that follow me have probably already seen my slides (although I updated them late last night), but for everyone else here are my slides from my talk titled “How I Built startupgossip.com In A Week (Using Yahoo Pipes)”.  Thanks again to all the people who sat and listened to me blabber on.  If I ever do another Yahoo Pipes demo, I’m going to make sure I’ve tested out the demo data well in advance so that I don’t get those same “interesting” results.  Nothing more needs to be said about that.
 

Startup Riot - Perhaps We Should Put VCs in the Hot Seat

This is just awesome.  The Israeli conference, TWS08, got not only startups onstage to pitch their companies but they got three VCs to pitch slide decks that they had never seen before.  The results are quite funny and perhaps this is something we should add to Startup Riot to add some levity to the day.
