Shel Israel says he never comes to my dinners cause he doesn’t think he’s a geek. Let’s see, he helped launch companies from Creative Labs to Riya and he’s not a geek? Yeah, right. Anyway, here’s a dirty little secret. Our dinners are always open to everyone. Even PR people! 🙂
While I was in Europe I learned that people around the world are jealous of Silicon Valley and Seattle cause we have so many geeks in those two places. Hey, I’m jealous of Europe. You have Anina the geek model! And decent beer!
But, please feel free to tell us about your geek meetups here too!
Anyway, here’s the details (Maryam and Patrick are coming too, so the whole family is welcome). Meet at Palo Alto’s Cheesecake Factory (on University Ave. in downtown Palo Alto) at 6 p.m. Bring cash so you can pay for your part. Feel free to show off your geek toys that you got for Christmas!

“Bring cash so you can pay for your part.”
So, even in Palo Alto you can go Dutch:-)
Hope they serve Dutch beer as well!

Palo Alto isn’t particularly easy to get to from the east bay. I’ll pass, especially since it’s supposed to flood this evening.

Robert, Shel told me to leave the following comment from this blog:
Shel:
“To include them and me more, all you have to do is call the events “Blogger Dinners,” not “Geek Dinners.” I suggest that if you agree with me, you should post comments wherever you please on Scoble’s Blog . However, if yo choose to actually write about this burning issue, please link to me, not him.”
Now I didn’t post them ‘wherever i please” but I did post it here.
I’m casting my vote for a dinner to be called a blog dinner. I’m not suggesting the current ‘geek dinner’ by renamed, but perhaps a second dinner be created for a larger businesss (and personal) audience.
Both could have entirely different audiences, as well as conversations –both would be stimulating and interesting.
