Late last year someone emailed me and asked me to join the Go BIG Network. This community describes itself as "Go BIG Network: The BIGGEST Startup Company Venture Capital angel investor Small Business Funding Entrepreneur Network." My initial visit to the site left me a little confused at first but then I started to find it was a great resource to find others with similar interests.

Since signing up I've had a few people contact me who are also on the network and I've contact others. When creating an account you are required to share information about yourself so the system can find "matches" with other members. What I like most about the site is the weekly emails I receive. Normally I would be annoyed by such things but with the Go BIG Network I'm only emailed when new people are found that may share interests and are in a relatively close geographic location. It is pretty cool.

After re-reading my post here I feel obligated to say that I'm not being paid by Go BIG Network to write this post. Also it is free to join. ;-)
