Ask HN: Midwestern Kid Goes to Startup-Land. How to make the most of it?

6 points by realitygrill 15y ago ↗ HN

So after reading HN for so long, I've finally made it out to the Bay Area. Even better: it's Palo Alto! Unfortunately, I'm only here for two months on internship.

What advice or tips do you have for someone who wants to squeeze the most startup-juice from their time here? I've got Steve Blank's tour guide, but I'd love to see some early startups in action, meet people, etc..

and on June 9th, there is a SuperHappyDevHouse meetup http://superhappydevhouse.org/w/page/16345504/FrontPage I'll probably be there -- I'm from Ann Arbor, MI myself and I'm visiting SF between July 3rd and July 10th. We should meet up while I'm there. Hit me up on twitter @ip2k :)
