You know how I sometimes celebrate milestones around here that probably don’t deserve to be celebrated…? Well. Here I go again. The Portland Startups Slack just crossed the 8000 users mark.
Eight. Thousand. Folks.
Now look. Are all 8000 of those people active on the Slack…? Ha. No. No they are not. Not even close. The word “zombie.” A staggering understatement. In fact, if you’re anything like many “members,” you signed up years ago, checked in once or twice, and haven’t opened it since.
But that’s okay. You’re still one of us.
And for those of you who ARE lurking around in there…? It’s kinda working right? Kinda keeping you connected? And engaged? Or something? And stuff?
If you haven’t joined yet, it’s free. It costs you nothing but a few minutes of your time. Come hang out with 8000 of your new best friends. Introduce yourself in #001_intro. And follow the Code of Conduct. Or just lurk. We’re not judging.
Much.
