The Best from the Southern California Tech Central Community

A while ago I posted about Secret for Networking at Events - Prenetworking where I recommended that people should look at who's attending the event prior to going to the event in order to make their networking more effective.

( I’m sick of the usual interviews with Tim Ferriss , which waste time arguing over whether it’s possible to work four hours a week. What I want to know is how Tim got so many people to talk about him and his book, The Four Hour Work Week , and how he made his book into a New York Times Best Seller.
So let’s help ease the transition by getting your mind of the job and instead thinking about all the great tech events in January where you can meet attractive women.
