Julia sounds awesome, but there has to be more than one EMPLOYEE or person relying on the next moves of the founder (single person consultancies don't count unfortunately - but I may think about doing a sub-category in the future, 'cause there are many of these).

My wife won't toot her horn either. Julia Brukhman -- www.ijenis.com 1. iJenis.com is Julia's full-time gig for about 3 years now. That is, besides another full-time gig as a terrific Mom of three. 2. She is a founder. Aggressively protective of her company's focus on local small businesses despite my attempts to influence her from my corporate technology consulting point of view. Guess what, I am a believer in "thinking small" too now, although with my own angle. 3. "Doesn’t have to be ‘2.0′ exactly, but should still be around from 1.0." ..Well, one might be surprised how many people and small local biz did not get even 1.0 yet. They need a gentle hand to help them join the rest in that 2.0-3.0 future. The more of small participants in the network the better (lookup "network effects"). That's where iJenis contribution is. Working with small local businesses requires a lot of patience, technology expertise and understanding of _both_ ends of a bridge over digital divide, and the margins are modest, but include a "good feeling inside." 4. She's an engineer, and iJenis is a technology and/or technology supporting company. 5. "There should be more than one person at the company" iJenis works with a number of freelancers and moonlighters from USA to Eastern Europe.\ Cheers, --VB Just like Bill Olen said…
