StartupOttawa covers early stage software startups

By Heri Sep 18th 2007 in Business

Scott Lake, of JadePixel and Shopify fame, has started startupottawa, a blog which covers, you guessed it, the Ottawa startup scene.

Local blogs are more focused and can cover local events and startups more in depth than “international” blogs; it’s also easier to connect with your readers.

Scott Lake previously wrote the post here on startups from Ottawa, and I am sure he will do a great job with startupottawa.

Montreal Tech Watch is really the reason I’m doing startupottawa. MTW was the first locally focused technology blog that I’ve been really interested in. We have a vibrant community in Ottawa with lots going on so doing our own locally focused blog was a great fit. Thanks Heri!
