I threw a party for Bay Area tech and media notables earlier this week, sponsored by Latitude, the UK’s most successful search engine marketing company. We had a great time at the British Bankers’ Club in Menlo Park, an old building which once housed a bank, then city hall, a police department, jail, and public library. Now it’s as close to a British pub as one will find in Silicon Valley.
The party was described by one attendee as “the best kind of mixer, where there was no such thing as a usual suspect, just lots of fascinating individuals making fizzy connections”. Partiers came from Google, Yahoo, Newsgator, Qik, Ustream, PBWiki, Triggit, powerhouse VC firm Canaan Partners and a variety of other notables in the tech and media space. Even the elusive founder of Techmeme, Gabe Rivera, graced us with his presence for a few hours. (Many thanks to the industry’s favourite tabloid, Valleywag, for telling their readers about the event, too!)
