Trust has 2 components:

  1. cognitive:  Can I predict your behavior?
  2. effective:  Do I like/dislike your behavior?

Portland TechCrunch- http://techcrunch.com/tag/portland/

I would just read techcrunch http://techcrunch.com/  and venturebeat http://venturebeat.com/ everyday. Nothing specific to Portland just see what is happening in the industry.

Silicon florist -  http://siliconflorist.com/ is a great blog and you can learn a ton about what is going on. He also runs Pie.

Geoloqi is the geofencing company.

things to look into more...

Perkins- Coie
The perkilator- free way to incorporate- then just do filing fees in Delaware
$300 to turn in.

Annual Fees:
(lowest in Delaware= $800)
OR= $150
based off of
a) how much capitalized
b) how much authorized

Habits! Very interesting!!

I read The Power of Habit:  Why We Do What We Do in Life and Business-
very interesting!
