SFO: Moma and meetups

A quick update: I am back in SFO again, this time for blogher where I am teaching advance 'podcasting stuff' and also to meet nice people in the area. Already I have encountered a lot of familiar and new faces. Which is the nice part: You already know a lot of people from online and now it is very often "oooooh this is you!!!"

Which was also true in San Francisco where I was at Podshow - no, not what you think. ;) I was there to meet Andrew Grumet (had a nice coffee with him, have to do that again!) and through him Michael Butler reminded me that there was a monthly SFO Podcaster meetup near my hotel - perfect. Again: Meeting old friends and new faces was awesome.

After blogher I will be heading back to SFO and thursday I will be flying back to Germany. Plans? Perhaps do some Segway Tourist tour, probably visit the musical A Chorus Line and for the rest enjoy SFO ;))

And the Moma? I found again I hate modern 'art'. (I will make some fotoseries of empty starbucks frappuchino bottlecaps and call it art also.) I think the Explanatorium, de Young and Golden Gate Park will be much nicer.

  1. Hey Nicole, I’m in Palo Alto at the moment, if you happen to pass through, let me know [1] and we can have a coffee/lunch/whatever. I can even demo cool English language applications! ;-)

About

female. european. geek.

About Nicole Simon I love working with people and help them get successful, especially through the use of social software. Though I have been on the net for over a decade and have consulted SMB for years, I also understand the corporate side, as I have worked in a major corporation for 15 years.

If you need a name for what I do, I usually call myself a European New Media Specialist with a special interest in blogging, podcasting and second life. I also love to 'testdrive' products / concepts which is best described as Technology Implementation Analyst.

You can read more about me on my Xing profile or contact me for more information.

When I do interviews (mainly pre conference podcasts I put them up here: Bloxpert so I can seperate blog / podcast talk a bit more from the stuff here.

Useful Sounds is my personal podcast, and I also have a German blog. Living in Lübeck, Germany, a European point of view comes with everything.



Why ctbk? Smooth-tongued responses are for the timid ones, and if there are no challenges, there is nothing to gain either. :)
