Introducing Santa Cruz Tech Beat, an Online News Digest for the Santa Cruz Community

Sara Isenberg, principal consultant at Sara Isenberg Web Consulting & Project Management (http://saraisenberg.com) has launched Santa Cruz Tech Beat, a news digest for those who want to keep informed about and share news regarding Santa Cruz's vibrant technology community.

Santa Cruz Tech Beat is a free, weekly, email-based digest. Not just for geeks, the digest provides a convenient way for business, community leaders, and the general public to stay informed about tech activities and business developments in Santa Cruz County. It also provides an easy way for local businesses and individuals in the tech community to share their news and perspectives with the broader community. People who live or work in Santa Cruz County are invited to subscribe to the email digest, and to submit news items.

In addition to the email digest, Santa Cruz Tech Beat’s website, http://santacruztechbeat.com, offers an archive of back issues of the digest and other locally-focused information aggregated from other sources, such as links to local tech groups, tech-related blogs, and notable blog posts.

City of Santa Cruz Mayor, Hilary Bryant, remarked, “Santa Cruz Tech Beat is a quick, easy, simple way to keep my finger on the pulse of tech in Santa Cruz. I haven’t missed a single issue.” Margaret Rosas, co-founder of TechRaising, commented, “For a long time I’ve had to convince people that yes indeed we have a tech community here in Santa Cruz. It’s not easily discovered. Now I’ll be able to refer folks to the Santa Cruz Tech Beat to catch up on what has happened and what is happening.” Doug Erickson, founder of Santa Cruz New Tech Meetup said, “The Santa Cruz Tech Beat is the much needed roadmap to the ‘techscape’ of Santa Cruz, making it much easier for all of us to view, comprehend, navigate, and connect to our wonderful, vibrant tech community.“
