Portland Start-up Index for June 2008: Some movement for the same list
It’s that time again. Techvibes has published its latest installation of the Portland Start-up Index. And while there’s a bit of jostling among the usual gang, no new companies and/or products appear on the list this time around.
The highest climber? Jama Software, followed by Iterasi. The biggest drop was Lightfleet.
So, without further ado:
- AboutUs

As always, this list comes with some caveats. The Techvibes index ranks Portland area tech start-up Web sites—sometimes a series of products from one company, sometimes the corporate site—based on an average of Alexa and Compete traffic rankings. And they don’t take into account widget activity.
Numbers, movement, and other details are available on the Portland Start-up Index page.

I think there are quite a few companies missing here, but most conspicuously absent, in my opinion? Vidoop.

Great list! It is exciting to think that all of these start-ups are in Portland. I wish them all the best and will anxiously anticipate the next rankings.

Perhaps Vidoop wasn’t considered a Portland company this time around since they haven’t completed the move of corporate headquarters from Tulsa.

@thisKat I think that’s a valid point. But I’d already used my “Isn’t Kongregate in the Bay Area?”, “Why are some of these products and some of these companies?”, and other similar complaints. I had to find something new about which to whine.
