# Reporting live from Silicon Valley

Today I arrived in San Francisco for two and a bit weeks of conferences and networking. This week I’m attending the [Supernova](https://web.archive.org/web/20100116081043/http://www.supernova2006.com/) conference, then it’s [Dave Winer](https://web.archive.org/web/20100116081043/http://www.scripting.com/2006/05/22.html#bloggerconIv)‘s [BloggerCon IV](https://web.archive.org/web/20100116081043/http://www.bloggercon.org/) and finally [Chris Pirillo](https://web.archive.org/web/20100116081043/http://www.lockergnome.com/)‘s [Gnomedex](https://web.archive.org/web/20100116081043/http://www.gnomedex.com/).

Marc Canter’s company [Broadband Mechanics](https://web.archive.org/web/20100116081043/http://www.broadbandmechanics.com/), who I work part-time for, is releasing [People Aggregator](https://web.archive.org/web/20100116081043/http://www.peopleaggregator.net/) at Gnomedex. So all the BBM team is gathering for that. Also over the next couple of weeks I’ll be talking up another project of mine, called Micro Media Corporation. It’s a corporate blogging and podcasting program run by London-based [The Rights Marketing Company](https://web.archive.org/web/20100116081043/http://rightsmarketing.wordpress.com/), along with myself. More on that in an upcoming post, because we’re looking for more blogging and/or podcasting contributers (and yes it pays!).

So it’ll be a busy time. And of course I’m really looking forward to catching up with all my Silicon Valley buddies. As for Read/WriteWeb and [my ZDNet blog](https://web.archive.org/web/20100116081043/http://blogs.zdnet.com/web2explorer/), watch out for a lot of conference live-blogging and special interviews!
