RoundPegg "scientifically ensures the people that come to work for your company fit the personality and culture of the business". Robert Scoble talks with Tim Wolters (Founder / CEO) and Brent Daily (Founder / COO) and gets to the root of what this TechStars 2010 team is up to in terms of its services for employers.
Micah Baldwin, CEO and Chief Community Caretaker of Graphic.ly speaks with Cyan Banister for a TechCrunch TV segment.
John Bliss and Greg Keller go under the Robert Scoble microscope in this interview about their startup Blipsnips. The 2010 TechStars company allows anyone to link to specific moments in a video and share it via a direct link or embed. The service currently works with YouTube and Vimeo videos. With YouTube extending the maximum time for video uploads to 15-minutes (certain Youtube accounts can upload videos of any length) and Vimeo having no length limitations, this feature seems to be increasingly relevant. This video is part of Robert Scoble's Building 43 project - check the site out for more videos like this one - http://www.building43.com/
Ian Bernstein, CEO and Adam Wilson, CTO of Gearbox ( now Orbotix, Inc.) demonstrate how their technology allows mobile phones to control devices. In this demo they control a robotic ball with their smartphone. Robert Scoble shot this video a couple of weeks ago outside of the Boulder Theater.

Robert Scoble, fresh off a trip to Boulder, CO, posted a video tour of the SimpleGeo office space on his Building 43 YouTube channel. SimpleGeo CEO & Co-Founder Matt Galligan does a nice job of introducing the team, showing off the office and of course explaining why most location based services don't share data and "get along" with one another.
Robin Wauters, a TechCrunch writer based in Belgium, interviewed Joe Stump during the Next Web conference held in Amsterdam during the last week in April. Joe, a former Digg employee, is currently the CTO of Boulder based startup SimpleGeo along with Matt Galligan. The interview talks in detail about SimpleGeo, a bit on their pricing model, and location tactics from the big boys - Twitter & Facebook.
