		<description>Having moved to Austin seven years ago, I was here when the bubble burst -- and have witnessed the slow decline of the tech sector since then.  IMHO, there&#039;s no sign of a recovery, or even the start of one.

That said, the upside in our market may be the blossoming film industry. Previously known for small Indie film projects, we&#039;re now seeing large budget projects like &quot;The Tree of Life&quot; -- directed by Terrence Malick, featuring Sean Penn and Brad Pitt cast in the primary roles.

Robert Rodriquez pioneer work with 2K and 4K Digital high-end cameras (Sin City and Grind House) is particularly noteworthy. The emerging Digital Cinema segment within the entertainment industry is perhaps one arena where Austin -- and its evolving talent pool -- can regain some economic development momentum.</description>

		<description>hey erick/techcrunch...

you guys used to have the forums section, what happened to it?

also, if you really want to tie techcrunch readers together, create a email list/social networking app, as well as a virtual bizdev function. throw together a few servers, let people come together to create the development environment (under the auspices of techcrunch) and sit back and watch what grows.!!

give me an email, and a contact, and i&#039;ll forward more information on what i&#039;m considering...
