Demolicious!

Last night, I was honored to be among five other founders at Demolicious Portland, showing off Shaxpir for the first time in public. That’s me right there, presenting Shaxpir on a forty-foot IMAX screen. It was pretty awesome.

I should say, right off the bat, that I was super impressed with the other demos: CardSmith, PiggyBank, Stenosaurus, WhereIGo, and Village. Everybody gave a really compelling presentation, and all the products look incredible. Here in my own household, we’re already installing Village (it’s like a daily chat-roulette, but with your own family & friends), and I think we’re going to have a lot of fun with it…

After the event, we voted on our favorite demos, and thanks to many kind people who voted for Shaxpir, we took home this handsome trophy:

Many thanks to the organizers of Demolicious, and the members of the local startup scene that sponsor events like this.

Portland is a pretty great place to to start things up.
