greetings from seattle

May 3, 2007

[View from my hotel room. Very cool.]
Arrived in Seattle a couple of hours ago. Too insanely busy to write much, but here are some quickies:
1. I’m staying at the Edgewater Hotel. Flying out Satrday morning.
2. Tomorrow Stormhoek CEO, Jason Korman and I are speaking at the MarketSmart conference.
3. Thanks to Robert and Maryam Scoble for putting on such a swell geek dinner in SF last night. Great to meet you all.
4. Friday I’m in Redmond, visiting with some groovy cats at Microsoft re. next steps in The Blue Monster Series.
5. Friday night I’m up for a Seattle geek dinner, if anyone fancies the same. I was hoping for somewhere geek-friendly with good beer and local chow around Pike Market? If you fancy coming along, please sign up on the wiki.

The bow looks like a Celebrity
but I don’t think the Mercury was in port.
Maybe a local?
Hugh, darling, please put me out of my misery
before I go insane.

I hope the trip is inspiring. Perhaps you can do something like the Blue Monster coming down off a tall Washington mountain (like a Yeti)and inter-mingling with people. OK, OK, I know, my ideas are cheesy. That’s why your the expert…and I am sitting here in my office at 10pm.
Well, I got my new gapingvoid update, now I am going home! Have a beer for me!

Steve, yeah, I saw the stickers. Very cool. He only had two left and gave one to Shel Israel… apparently they’re gold dust 😉

Hugh — thanks for a great presentation at MarketSmart. It was definitely engaging, and made me think about how our B2B company can better engage people with our blog. Keep up the good work!
