The Bootstrap Web Subgroup (aka Web 2.0 Subgroup) is for founders of bootstrap businesses who have an interest in web technology. You don't have to have a web company per se - we all use the web as part of our business. Participation in our monthly meetings and ongoing online conversations is a great way to get and remain knowledgeable about best practices and new technologies. Subgroup leaders are Jon Lebkowsky, jonl ~at~ socialwebstrategies dot com, and Marcus Mateus, marcus ~at~ simplitex dot com.
Membership in the Bootstrap Web Subgroup is free, and joining is easy: Yahoo Group for the Web Subgroup
