Here’s what we’ve found as we’ve traveled the local PDX web (complete with our comments) for March 21st:

  • Get your veggies on! | Sassy Gardener – Leann Locher — better known to many of us as LeLo (@lelonopo on Twitter) — is a passionate gardener who's now studying to become a master gardener, no less. She shares her five tips for first-time vegetable gardeners in her latest column on the Just Out site.
  • Geek Bat signal: Oregon entrepreneurs need to act now! No, really. I mean right now. » Silicon Florist – Rick needs YOU to read this post. Yes, you.

    So how about this? How about you take a few seconds to provide some details about one, two, or 12 of your current side projects? Take a moment to reflect on what you could do with $250,000 in the next year, to help bring your product or idea to fruition.

    Don’t think you’re worthy? Not interested in getting funding? I’d still encourage you to take a few moments to respond. Really, what could it hurt?

    The point is this: rising water floats all boats. And our state treasurer needs convincing that we have a viable entrepreneurial environment filled with viable startups just waiting to take form. What’s more, if these folks can pull off putting together a $100 million fund for Oregon startups, it’s going to help all of us.

    (Yes, this means I'll be over there as well talking about what a cash infusion might mean for OurPDX!)

  • Open Source Bridge: Open Source Bridge 2009 proposals – You have from now until March 31st to submit proposals for sessions at Open Source Bridge, happening June 17th-19th here in PDX at the Convention Center.
