techcrunch

techcrunch was ok, it seemed more fun and more packed last year for some reason. met more interesting people last year. maybe because there were more new faces. now in the silly valley "scene" you start bumping into the regulars at all the entrepreneurial gatherings. there were some notables though. i really enjoyed my demo and conversation with mike giordano from kyte. he even had these cute mini cards with dif photos on the back of the cards and a little icon that looks like him on the front. i likes! although it was a feat not to lose the card since i dropped it a few times. def impressed with the company and technology. very "web 3.0" if there is such a thing. i went around to the other displays also but can't really say i was really impressed. there is just too much noise in the tech space rite now...it makes it hard for good ideas to stand out without a good angle. saw some of the big names in the valley. sometimes they are really kool and down to earth. other times they are snooty for no reason. cmon guys (or gals)...you achieved greatness by the support of regular folks. so u should treat those regular folks better! it's a small valley and you never know who will make it big next. however after attending techcrunch and witnessing all the tech noise, it only reaffirms the probability for success for my business ideas B1 and B2 since they are not exactly web 2.0 related. rather, they are non-techy but will be using web 2.0 technologies as enablers. going at the B's with full force.
