My name is Fred Ngo, a startup entrepreneur based out of Montreal, Canada. I'm an instigator of BarCamps and other entrepreneurship activities in Montreal, and my own startup is standoutjobs.com I've been tracking the progress of the Boulder entrepreneurship community for some time, and I'm loving what's happening! I have a chance to visit Boulder around July 29-30th or thereabouts... Are there any entrepreneur gatherings around that time? I'd love to get connected with your tech scene!

Everyone else we've met out there has been most helpful and supportive. One thing we've found is that while mentors are extremely important, a peer group helps to alleviate some anxieties as well - you find out that you're not the only ones experiencing a certain problem, or you hear of something someone else is doing that you might have to deal with later. If you're not in an entrepreneurial or startup hotspot, you're not going to get that. And, while it might not make or break your company, it certainly does help to blow off some steam at the end of a long day/week. We can't wait to get up there, but unfortunately we have to wait for the house to sell so we can do it right. Anybody moving to Tallahassee, FL? I know where you can get a nice place! ;) David,
