Andy Sack and Chris Devore (both of Judy's Book) have created a $2M fund and co-working space for new internet founders. Very nice idea. I like the investment tie they are making between founders in the fund to get a pool of equity in each other's companies (I talked about doing this last year - but these guys are actually putting $ behind it).

Boulder, CO incubator - summer entrepreneurship program. The video is pretty cheezy - though I think the concept is great.

A pep talk (in disguise) knocking down the excuses for not starting a company.
I think it's a no-brainer for a young person if you can manage to get funded. But there's the rub - it's very difficult to get funded. So, if you keep your expenses really low, you might be able to do it. It will be a great learning experience - but don't expect to get rich (and don't raise money from people that have to get their money back!)
