Reckless Engineers
Nick Sturge at Set Squared passed on this interesting blog post from David Manners about high-tech business in Bristol.
Going down to Bristol these days is to get a taste of what it must have been like to live in 19th century England when the railways were being built.
There’s a proliferation of new companies. Everyone in the West Country is talking about so-and-so’s new start-up, or what so-and-so might be planning for his next start-up.
That fits with my experience, and we’ve found Bristol’s a great place to build things like The Viral Ad Network. There are creative, inventive, hard-working people here, strong networks (iShed, Open Coffee, Bristol Media), and nice places to meet. It’s good to be part of something.
