Walk the Geeky Red Carpet with me tonight

Seattle 2.0

It's finally here -- the Seattle 2.0 Awards live event is upon us. And, Marcelo's asked me to present the award this evening to the Best Seattle-Area Venture Capitalist.  So I'll be walking the geeky red carpet!

The finalists?

• Bill Bryant - Draper Fisher Jurvetson
• Bill McAleer - Voyager Capital
• Matt McIlwain - Madrona Venture Group
• Nick Hanauer - Second Avenue Partners

Of course, as an entrepreneur, I love them all pretty much equally... well, not really... Matt's actually cut TeachStreet checks, so I may call out his name regardless of what's in the envelope ;-) ).

But, the voters have spoken, so 3 will have to leave the island, and 1 will get to spend a weekend with me in Spokane -- it'll be wonderful.

Oh... if you'd like to participate in the event, but can't make it in the door (or, don't live in Seattle), they'll also be streaming the event live.
