Oooh...we're a networking hot spot

Post by SageV » Sun Sep 08, 2013 3:43 pm

So big media says we've suddenly becoming a Tech Industry Networking Hot Spot because Mark Zuckerburg handed out grilled cheese sandwiches.

Granted, the sandwiches were tasty, but did mainstream media take a time machine back to 2000 for this story? How out of date can a bunch of corporate types be?

Just standard media sensationalism. CEOs of Restoration Hardware, Ikea, Facebook, and Asana were there along with P. Diddy so it must be ALL ABOUT THE NETWORKING.

Who cares what writers who probably don't even attend BM think of it?
