Sign Up

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 leader is Jon Lebkowsky, jonl ~at~ socialwebstrategies dot com.

Membership in the Bootstrap Web Subgroup is free, and joining is easy: Yahoo Group for the Web Subgroup

Next Meeting

Tuesday, September 16, 6:30pm at Conjunctured, 1309 E. 7th Street, Austin Is Twitter relevant to your business? It's a huge and rapidly growing network of influentials and early adopters in a robust information environment that people just keep using even when it's broken. Originally conceived as a microblogging platform, Twitter has become a core messaging platform for the evolving social web. Articles about Twitter in business are popping up everywhere - such as Shel Israel's Business Week piece, "Getting Intimate (with Customers) on Twitter." (http://www.businessweek.com/technology/content/sep2008/tc2008095_701983.htm)

Mike Chapman of Every Dot Connects (http://everydotconnects.com/our-team/mike-chapman/) will join Bootstrap Web September 16 for a conversation about TWitter and its relevance for bootstrappers.

Also note our new location - we're meeting at Conjunctured, the coworking company, at 1309 E. 7th St. Add Bootstrap Web to your calendars - 3rd Tuesday of each month!
