Last night Current TV premiered Megan Sweeney’s fantastic film documenting “Startup Bootcamp”, Techstars. It was awesome to see the video on real TV rather than just on the Internet. Apparently Current will be reairing it many times in the next couple days, so tune in to try to catch it.
If you don’t get Current or don’t have a chance to see it, here’s the shortened, edited version that aired last night:

The multi-talented Christine Hassler - the host of Twenty Something Yak - also has an advice column in the Huffington Post. Today she tackled the question of a troubled Atlanta reader trying to decide if it’s cool or not to try online dating.

StartUP will premier in Current TV’s Nightly New showcase TONIGHT, November 17th, 2008 at 11:00pm EST/8pm PST. Mark your calendar.
After that it will air again three hours later and enter Current TV’s regular rotation on the network.

StartUP takes place in Boulder, Colorado which is becoming a hub for web startup companies. This story is about Techstars, a mentorship-driven seed stage investment fund, who selects 10 companies made up of young entrepreneurs to join a summer program where they are exposed to many mentors and investors. We focus on two of the companies in this incredible program, Ignighter & Foodzie. They had the opportunity to meet people like Matt Mullenweg of WordPress to the founders of Photobucket. We hope this inspires any of you out there with an idea and a lot of passion.
