		<description>Thanks, Heri.

One of the things I love about blogging is the license to write what you want. In many cases, something we see on the street or a chance conversation overheard in an elevator leads to a blog if you&#039;ve got your &quot;entrepreneur lenses&quot; on.

Montreal&#039;s got a thriving (et bien bilingue) technology base; where it needs help is promotion and visibility on a global scale. I think many of the local entrepreneurs have high hopes that the Internet will level the playing field.

That said, there are a lot of challenges, culturally, to creating a great tech city. Laika and SAT are pretty much the only places in Montreal where I feel like I&#039;m in the Bay Area, and more of that critical mass -- in the form of venues, events, and co-op programs -- is needed.

MTW is definitely carrying that banner; keep up the great work.</description>

		<description>All great sites you&#039;ve listed.  Young startup CEO&#039;s and those that want to be definitely need all of the resources they can get.  Another startup up resource site I&#039;d recommend is &quot;Rules for Renegads&quot;, www.rulesforrenegades.com.  The author, Christine Comaford-Lynch totally rocks.

		<description>MEHDI, j&#039;espérais que tu sois toujours vivant ;) je vois donc que c&#039;est le cas. Manifestement, un de nos courriels est tombé dans la boite à spams de l&#039;autre. Le seul contact que j&#039;ai eu venant de toi après ta mystérieuse disparition était sur LinkedIn. 
Je t&#039;ai répondu en te disant que Michael t&#039;avais envoyé un contrat et que nous pouvions nous en parler par téléphone si tu étais disponible. Mais nous n&#039;avons eu aucune réponse. Comme tu n&#039;as pas appelé j&#039;en ai déduis que tu ne voulais plus faire affaire avec nous puisque tu n&#039;avais pas appelé, ni répondu à nos deux rappels par courriel. J&#039;ai également cherché dans ton dossier si j&#039;avais un numéro de téléphone, mais rien ... Je suis heureux de voir que ce n&#039;étais qu&#039;un malentendu. Appelle s&#039;il te plait Mercredi au 514 907 0735 x734 pour Michael.</description>

		<description>Heri - thank you for including me on the list. I wish I wrote more often than I do - these days I have a combination of overload from Standout and writer&#039;s block. Frustrating, sometimes... :)

On that note, however, if anyone here would like me to write about something (and I&#039;m able to) I&#039;d be interested in hearing from people on what they&#039;d like to hear about...maybe that will give me some fresh ideas to write about!</description>

		<description>Yann, je voulais juste te dire que etre professionel c&#039;est d&#039;abord repondre aux emails. 
Je ne sais pas si c&#039;est au sein de Present Profit c&#039;est une technique qui vise a selectionner les candidats les plus desesperes (i.e. ceux qui vont vous envoyer des emails de rappel alors que le rendez-vous est deja fixe et peut etre meme consomme), mais je trouve cela aberrant. 
Je ne pense pas et a juste titre que Present Profit peut etre une alternative viable pour une startup au sens de la Silicon Valley, etant donne qu&#039;une premiere prise de contact avec Present Profit peut prendre jusqu&#039;a 1 mois et nous ne sommes pas assures du suivi qui a ete quasi inexistant dans mon cas!
C&#039;est bien dommage.</description>

Je sais que ton blog est de plus en plus en anglais et que le mien est de plus en plus en français... mais www.presentprofit.com/PPDirect/ reste le blog le plus documenté sur les aides gouvernementales disponibles...</description>
