Marie, yup having that change-the-world vibe would be great though if you ask John Sculley he might rather sell sugared water instead

BTW Migs, you should have a subscribe to comments in your blog…

@Ordnacin That reminds me of the movie Pirates of Silicon Valley. Having browsed through “The Apple Way” book, I guess Silicon Valley isn’t totally perfect but I think it’d be great to have that we-can-change-and-start-new-things vibe.

Interesting way of putting it, Ordnacin. But you are pessimistic sir!

There is an advantage to not having done it in the sense that you get to keep your “idealized” image of Silicon Valley. Think of all the famous people you admire only to meet them and turn out they’re jerks…

Meaning… even if they are in Silicon Valley or another tech hub, they are still not superstars or fabulously wealthy!

Migz,

I’ve started talking to the people who own the tech blogs in the .NET blog via twitter. It’s great — many of them are quite hilarious, and they share many of the same problems so you don’t get the feeling that they’re “way up there” above you.
