The Seattle Startup Index (SSI)

November 1st, 2007

Marcelo Calbucci, the founder of Sampa produces a monthly list chronicling tech startups in Seattle, and ranking them according to their ratings in Alexa and Compete. These ratings are notoriously inaccurate, but most people consider them “better than nothing” and it’s cool to see all of the startups tracked in a single list.

This month Wishlisting is up to 90 from 98 (when we first joined the list). The list has also grown to 210 companies up from 188 last month.

For those of you in the Seattle Tech Startup scene, I’d recommend subscribing to Marcelo’s feed. It doesn’t barrage you with updates, but you get pinged whenever a new startup joins the list, and he occasionally sends out messages about local events. If Marcelo’s name sounds familiar but you can’t pinpoint it, he was the one who gave a great talk about using AJAX to trap JavaScript exceptions at Ignite Seattle several months ago.
