The X Lists Debut: San Diego’s Online Reference Library for Innovators and Entrepreneurs

the co-working spaces (I didn’t know about the Hive or digital-telepathy), the legal firms that specialize in technology startups, as well as major events and innovation organizations, where peer-to-peer networking means talking with another person face-to-face. Of course, don’t forget to look near the bottom of the Xconomy home page or here for scheduled monthly events.

Under “Jobs & Employment” we feature links to local job listings in various technology sectors, and for the analytically minded, we’ve got links to Xconomy stories assessing the deals, data, and the viability of life sciences companies, local technology clusters, and our innovation maps.

As an aside, readers may not realize that the Xconomy San Diego website itself is fully searchable. If you are looking for a past story you read or information on a technology, a particular startup, or background on a venture firm, you can not only find what’s been written in San Diego about it, but anything published on Xconomy’s other websites.

Finally, aside from these very handy sources and references, the X Lists home page includes a live feed of Twitter posts from dozens of people and organizations in San Diego’s technology, startup, and investing communities. So we’re also collecting all those relevant tweets for you in one place—like birds on a wire—and providing one more reason why Xconomy should be your main source for the whole spectrum of tech news and information in San Diego.

Author: Bruce V. Bigelow

In Memoriam: Our dear friend Bruce V. Bigelow passed away on June 29, 2018. He was the editor of Xconomy San Diego from 2008 to 2018. Read more about his life and work here. Bruce Bigelow joined Xconomy from the business desk of the San Diego Union-Tribune. He was a member of the team of reporters who were awarded the 2006 Pulitzer Prize in National Reporting for uncovering bribes paid to San Diego Republican Rep. Randy “Duke” Cunningham in exchange for special legislation earmarks. He also shared a 2006 award for enterprise reporting from the Society of Business Editors and Writers for “In Harm’s Way,” an article about the extraordinary casualty rate among employees working in Iraq for San Diego’s Titan Corp. He has written extensively about the 2002 corporate accounting scandal at software goliath Peregrine Systems. He also was a Gerald Loeb Award finalist and National Headline Award winner for “The Toymaker,” a 14-part chronicle of a San Diego start-up company. He takes special satisfaction, though, that the series was included in the library for nonfiction narrative journalism at the Nieman Foundation for Journalism at Harvard University. Bigelow graduated from U.C. Berkeley in 1977 with a degree in English Literature and from the Columbia University Graduate School of Journalism in 1979. Before joining the Union-Tribune in 1990, he worked for the Associated Press in Los Angeles and The Kansas City Times.
