I heard some rumors over the weekend, and now TechCrunch is reporting that CompUSA is shutting down. Good.
They shut down the store nearest me in Maryland a while back. It was replaced by a Micro Center, a chain I had never heard of.
To put it simply, they nailed it. A haven for both geeks […]

One of my friends pointed out to me that a search for dc metro times on Google shows my lil’ web app in third place. Nice!
Peter of iStrategyLabs recommended that I get it it’s own domain name, no more piggybacking off skeevisarts.com (which I redesigned by the way, check it out!!) and see what I […]
I had been planning on writing my thoughts on this for a while, but spurred on by the announcement of a local tech incubator launching in the coming months, I felt it was time to write something.
Tech entrepreneurs, who dedicate so much of their lives to connecting people regardless of geographic location, still rely on […]

DC’s Startup Weekend is this weekend. I never signed up because of various other commitments going on, but I am proud to be a cosponsor of […]
Besides riding to the top of here, watching these guys win an unwinnable game, and having a crap-ton of fun here, I still managed to code an extraordinary amount.

Ignite is another O’Reilly-branded conference that has been “made open” in that anyone can create one in their area. Like Barcamp, it is loosely organized, more meant as a place for like-minded folk to get together, network, and brainstorm rather than really learn.

Hi there!
My name is Zvi Band (pronounced zuh-vee), and I write this blog. You'll hear me talk about technology, social media, digital strategy, and entrepreneurship, all of which I am interested in.
I recently graduated (Go Terps!) and am working full time, however my heart lies in entrepreneurship. Watch me!
Everything I say is my own personal opinion, and should be treated as such. In this blog, what I say is not representative of my employer, clients, or anyone else other than myself.
