I've founded a couple of startups in Austin. The thing to know about Austin is that, at least right now, there are only about 6 consumer Internet startups of note who can afford real talent. Unless you move here for a specific position, or are a developer, finding a decent job will be tricky. If you like enterprise software, though, you'll be happier than a pig in mud.

Would you mind naming the startups?
HomeAway, indeed, Retailmenot, vast, Gowalla, myedu, uship, regretsy/passiveaggresivenotes, wpengine, otherinbox, Dell.
Regretsy is a startup? I thought it was just a blog that linked to stupid Etsy art.
Any way I can contact you OOB? My email address is in my profile.
