Mostly to meet friends and eat good food. Plus, i heard so much about the mission district. I just have to check it myself. I ll be staying for couple of days.
In portland, there are plenty of bar w/ wireless, perfect for hacking w/ friends. I'm hoping for similar experience in mission/soma area.
heading down to areas in San Jose, like Mountain View, Cupertino, etc. yields tons of people in every cafe talking / working on tech. Going to a random cafe in Mountain View, you'll be sure to hear people talking about something related to tech and code.
Are you looking for a place to work, or to meet people, or what?
And how long are you in town for?
