Go Meet Someone New (in CA): Issue #2

After over 100 Ohours in NYC, our friend out in CA are starting to catch on and are hosting Ohours themselves.

If you’re out in either the SF area or Irvine, think about getting out of your office, hopping in your car, and going to meet one of these people!

  • Eric Busby, CTO-turned-entrepreneur from Irvine, CA, is meeting up with people Monday at 10AM PST, at a Starbucks in Irvine. 
  • Adam D’Augelli, VC at True Ventures in San Francisco, is seeing people on Monday at 6PM PST, at the True Ventures offices on The Embarcadero.
  • Eran Shir, Former physicist, Founder of Dapper (one of my favorite early Semantic Web companies) and now currently a Yahoo! in Sunnyvale, is hosting Ohours Tuesday the 18th at 4PM PST.

I’m pumped to see people taking up Ohours outside of NY already. NYC is just in its early stage of the Ohours revolution, and so these folks in CA are quite the frontiersmen.

Thanks to all the hosts and attendees!
