The startup job listing site nPost.com is having another one of its tech community networking events. If you’re an entrepreneur, VC, angel investor, or just general techie… the nPost.com events serve up some of the best networking opportunities around Seattle. This time around, however, the hosts are adding something a little bit different: a DEMO-style set of presentations where 5 local companies get time in front of the whole crowd to pitch their business / service / idea / whatever. If you want a chance to present your product, the submission deadline is April 16th. Otherwise, simply put your name on the attendee list to reserve a spot at the event. The list is almost full, so sign up soon.

The 6 Hour Startup project is settling into a monthly routine now – a new session on the second Saturday of each month. That means this coming weekend, they’ll be running a new project: a Co-Browsing Firefox plug-in built with Javascript, and a Smalltalk variant known as Squeak. The session organizers will be mixing it up this time around, splitting the whole thing out into two days. On Saturday there will be two groups working simultaneously: a technical group running a tutorial on Squeak and Smalltalk, and then a business group doing prep-work for the actual session. Then Sunday afternoon will be the actual implementation session, with a full working product by the end of the day if everything goes well. For more details on the actual project, check out the 6 Hour Startup blog.
As a disclaimer, I’m on the Operational Board for 6 Hour Startup. We’re currently looking for more people to get involved and help us guide the endeavor over the next year. So, if you want to learn more, either show up this weekend, or hop on the mailing list.
