The Buzzstream Team, Paul our CEO, Randy our CTO, and I hit the TechCrunch party Thursday night at Pangae.  It was great to see so many friends and the number of cool ventures, many of whom are way under the radar, starting up in Austin.  Erick hit the nail on the head with regard to the investment climate in Austin driving companies to figure out how to grow by scaling a profitable business model.  I was glad he picked up on that.  And Paul made the video explaining the subtlety of not being a blogger but having a blog.  Funny stuff.
