That's awesome and inspiring for us hopeful entrepreneurs. My little group is currently working out of my attice (attic + office).
It's also nice to know that LinkedIn has helped others, we've been trying to use it to find investors with no luck.

Thank you for not jumping on the LinkedIn bandwagon. I thought I was the only one (I'm a developer btw).

Just can't see the value of paying so you can network on LinkedIn. I always thought human relationships, especially those based on trust, should be free. I ought to be able to communicate with a contact of mine without paying LinkedIn to do it. That's just silly, and it saddens me that they've managed to scare up so many funds from VCs.

Robert - I'm surprised you were turned off by LinkedIn. I've found it to be the only "social networking" site I'll go near. I thought this type of targeted networking site would appeal to you. I'd be interested to hear you go into more detail about what turns you off to LinkedIn. I'm a pretty new user of LinkedIn so maybe I'm missing the downside.

Hashbrown: if you don't have a blog, this kind of network is very attractive. If you have a blog, it brings more noise than it's worth. So, don't take my experience with it as gospel.
I hate getting messages sent through 15 people I don't know just to get to me, especially when my freaking email address and phone number are on my blog.
