Vlad Ceraldi named one of Vancouver’s Top 40 Under 40 and TechVibes best new tech blog–and a contest!
TechVibes gets the coolest stories. Well I do try to scoop them as much as I can-friendly competition is good! The latest bit is that Hothead Games founder has been named one of Vancouver’s Top 40 under 40 (I have a little less than two years to make that this-gotta work harder in 2008 I think!):

And not ones to toot their own horn, though they should, Vancouver’s own Miss 604 named TechVibes the best new tech blog. Hmm, maybe we need to do a Vancouver Island edition. We Islanders don’t get the props often enough…
There’s an idea. Let’s get some nominations for the best blogs and bloggers from Vancouver Island. I’m betting I can score some prizes for the winners. Yes, I said prizes. I’m big on software, but I bet we could get some of those strange book things, and maybe even hardware.
Categories… let’s just see what we come up with, but I know we’re going want podcasts, tech, men, women, review, fun, news …
Okay let’s get to it folks.
Update none other than KK+ (Kris Krug) put up a list of the Vancouver Tech Women to Watch in 2008. Can’t agree more with his choices!

Thanks Tris - it’s not often Techvibes beats you to the punch though.

Not exactly a blog per se, but we are a “Microsoft Platform Developer” technical community here in Victoria and we’re having a conference on January 26th.

[…] Nolan left a comment letting me know about it. I should be able to pop in for at least some of the time that day. Want to check in on the thriving tech scene here in the Garden City. […]
