Looking for a way to jump head-first into the startup life? Tyler Willis recently emailed me to tell me about StartupWeekend, a nationwide series of weekends that bring together a group of people to build a startup from ground floor to finished product in one weekend. According to the blog, “It’s an intellectual challenge and an exercise in teamwork, efficiency, and fun.”

This sounds like a really cool event. For those who are just looking to get into the startup space, I highly recommend you check out the event, taking place November 16-18. Tickets are free and both techincal and non-technical folks can sign up.
