Interesting post, about what makes Austin so special and unique. My thought is, that in addition to the positive energy; confluence of actors and resources; the push and pull dynamism of being connected; there is, also the opportunity to make a living.

Noting that your blog has an Non-Commercial restriction (instead of CC-BY or CC-BY-SA) certainly is not in the spirit of making a living. Perhaps it is a philosophical choice - see Stephen Downes - but I question it, because as we use and remix each other's work (either formally or informally), it's nice to be able to make a living while plying our craft.

Beyond that, the NC restriction on your blog, removes you from a wide swath of people who would ordinarily participate and contribute.

My 2 cents.
