San Francisco is a Blur
Crazy few days in San Francisco and Silicon Valley. I love the city. I am staying at the W Hotel this time and using Starwood Points. I like this particular W.
Yesterday, I had lunch with one of Wallstrip’s and my blogs uber smart readers Soren. We chatted currencies and what a nightmare time he had working for the cheap bastards at Apple (note – good for shareholders). I spent some time on the Berkeley campus and visited with the TubeMogul team. They are growing like a weed and the whole campus had some great energy.
In the afternoon I checked out Mark Pinkus’s new incubator campus (building) and hung with Loic Le Meur, founder of Seesmic . Check out Seesmic and try and get an invite. It’s like Twitter, just with video conversations. I love this idea for the stock traders.
Today was my first trip down to Sand Hill Road today and as I twittered…big woop. There is a lot of money and decision power in a few buildings though which is pretty cool at some level. If I lived in this part of the world I think it would be Palo Alto…can’t afford it so no worries.
My friend Eddie Daroza, writes for KRON 4, which is a News Corp. affiliate in San Francisco. He just had me on Rob Black’s show. That was fun. Should be up later.
My buddy Sonny Singh from Inmage.net (I can’t believe I passed on this investment), was my guide today.
