<p><em>Introducing Technically Philly&#8217;s <a href="http://technicallyphilly.com/tag/startup-roundup">Startup Roundup</a>.

<h3>DEFINITE READS</h3>
<p><a href="http://technicallyphilly.com/tag/ltl-prints">LTL Prints</a> has been racking up partners weekly, according to the deluge of press releases we get, but that&#8217;s why not why we&#8217;re playing this one. The Old City-based wall graphics company <a href="http://www.ltlprints.com/blog/interview-with-australian-designer-yiying-lu-twitter-fail-whale-creator-about-her-new-wall-art-collections/">has an interview with Twitter&#8217;s Fail Whale creator — and LTL featured artist — Yiying Lu</a>. It&#8217;s not about failure at all:&#8221;I wanted to create a visual greeting – a visual ‘comfort’ for my friends back home for all the events that I was missing,&#8221; Lu says. Check it out if not for the story, for the original sketches.</p>
<p>Conshocken-based biotech firm <a href="http://technicallyphilly.com/tag/nupathe">NuPathe</a> — <a href="http://technicallyphilly.com/2009/09/18/friday-qa-jane-hollingsworth-of-nupathe-on-zelrix-migraines-and-more">read our Q&#038;A with the company, which is developing a migraine treatment patch, here</a> — has set the terms for the debut of its initial public offering, at between $14 and $16 per share, hoping to raise $75 million with the offering.</p>
<p>We&#8217;re way psyched to see this one come through the pipeline: ZVRS, a company which is <a href="http://appadvice.com/appnn/2010/07/video-relay-calling-facetime-assists-deaf/">taking advantage of iPhone 4&#8242;s Facetime to provide translation services for the hearing impaired</a> launched launched at Hard Rock in Center City. Remember that, ahem, <a href="http://technicallyphilly.com/2010/06/24/philly-geeks-the-scene-that-gives-back">social entrepreneurship thing here in Philly we&#8217;ve been writing and talking with folks about</a>? Yeah, cough. It&#8217;s happening.<br />

<h3>MIGHT BE WORTH YOUR TIME</h3>
<p><a href="http://technicallyphilly.com/tag/dreamit-ventures">DreamIt Ventures</a> graduate <a href="http://technicallyphilly.com/tag/seatgeek">SeatGeek</a>, now based in New York, <a href="http://www.dmwmedia.com/news/2010/07/22/seatgeek-lands-1-million-predictive-ticket-pricing">raised $1 million in funding this week</a> while on the other side of the Technically Philly world — in our Venture Capital Roundup — DreamIt organizers <a href="http://technicallyphilly.com/2010/07/27/vc-roundup-dreamit-in-forbes-magazine#more-10563">are defending DreamIt&#8217;s success</a>, though a <a href="http://www.forbes.com/forbes/2010/0809/entrepreneurs-dreamit-economic-development-startup-juice.html">a Forbes story last week questioned it</a>.</p>
<p><a href="http://technicallyphilly.com/tag/myyearbook">myYearbook</a>&#8216;s got a few new partners for its real-time <a href="http://chatter.myyearbook.com/">Chatter web app</a>, a Twitter clone, that maybe does Twitter a little smarter than Twitter. It&#8217;s offering businesses <a href="http://brand.chatter.com">a 100,000 fans guarentee</a>. Anywho, Got Milk, Six Flags and MTV drank the kool aid, <a href="http://www.businesswire.com/portal/site/home/permalink/?ndmViewId=news_view&#038;newsId=20100720006814&#038;newsLang=en">according to a press release</a>. And geez, those numbers. Got Milk—that&#8217;s right, the one you know and love and thought was gone—generated 30,000 comments and 500,000 new fans in less than two months on the teen social network. That&#8217;s where the money is, peoples.</p>
<p><a href="http://technicallyphilly.com/tag/redlasso">RedLasso</a> has partnered with Daylife, an NYC-based company that creates content tools for media companies and brands. Daylife&#8217;s got all the buzz lately one would expect of a $15 million-funded company, and RedLasso <a href="http://www.prweb.com/releases/daylife/ignite/prweb4280254.htm">is excited to be a part of it</a>, providing its partners with greater reach.</p>
<p><a href="http://technicallyphilly.com/tag/protosphere">ProtonMedia</a> shows off the goods for the forthcoming version 1.5 of ProtoSphere, its virtual reality meeting software. There&#8217;s now proxy features for bypassing company firewalls (yo, don&#8217;t tell the myYearbook kids about proxies; <a href="http://www.google.com/url?sa=t&#038;source=web&#038;cd=1&#038;ved=0CBIQFjAA&#038;url=http%3A%2F%2Fanswers.yahoo.com%2Fquestion%2Findex%3Fqid%3D20071120081700AAIasrF&#038;ei=cZBPTPLTLMHdngeCncWQBw&#038;usg=AFQjCNEp3L-hOKCGWPscoB4ZPXaeY6EKzw&#038;sig2=oJoNdI6IWZnkQZ3nnziRhA">they already know about &#8216;em</a>). The software company will also provide the option to bundle the ProtoSphere app on USB drives for mobility. Nice.</p>
<p>Lancaster-based nonprofit fundraising software firm GiftWorks gets featured this morning for its interesting, if not valuable to some, <a href="http://blog.giftworksconnect.com/2010/07/a-dollar-saved-is-a-dollar-raised-group-purchasing-for-nonprofits.html?utm_source=feedburner&#038;utm_medium=feed&#038;utm_campaign=Feed:+giftworks+(GiftWorks+Fundraising+Blog)">blog platform which offers tips to development leaders on how to raise dollars in the not-for-profit world</a>.</p>
<h3>GIVE A GLANCE</h3>
<p>Here&#8217;s some advice for startups this week, as well. <a href="http://www.thesunnews.com/2010/07/24/1600870/how-to-keep-startup-costs-down.html">Keep that budget belt tight my friend</a> and <a href="http://www.bizjournals.com/philadelphia/othercities/atlanta/stories/2010/07/26/smallb4.html?b=1280116800^3693981&#038;s=sbc:3">take the leap for big growth</a>.</p>
<p><a href="http://technicallyphilly.com/tag/packlate-com">PackLate</a> has announced a partnership with <a href="http://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/barefoot-technologies-announces-new-partnership-with-packlatecom-99096244.html">Barefoot Technologies</a>, a browser-based reservation and asset management system, giving the latter real-time booking tech, a direction for PackLate that seems an obvious, if not smart revenue model. We really want to book a trip with PackLate, but damned us if that isn&#8217;t a conflict of interest.</p>
<p>As if <a href="http://technicallyphilly.com/tag/venmo">Venmo</a> needed anymore credibility, now <a href="http://www.psfk.com/2010/05/psfk-speaks-with-andrew-kortina-of-venmo.html">London is all over their mobile payment jawn</a>.</p>
<p><em><a href="http://technicallyphilly.com/tag/startup-roundup">Startup Roundup</a> will post weekly on Wednesdays until there&#8217;s not a Philly startup story left to link to on the Internet. See others <a href="http://technicallyphilly.com/tag/startup-roundup">here</a>.</em></p>
