Product Description

Synopsis

Some people say that Silicon Valley is a state of mind, but the cultural trends that drive us today were born in a very real place - the garages and back rooms of the cities between San Francisco and San Jose, California.This unique book delves into Silicon Valley history, taking readers from success story to failed start-up and back again as they travel the roads in the birthplace of modern technology. Get the inside scoop on the addresses that really matter - including Google, Intel, Sun Microsystems, and the Computer History Museum in Mountain View.Also included in "Geek Silicon Valley" are profiles of the larger-than-life characters who pioneered the internet revolution, the legendary entrepreneurs and inventors who made it all possible, as well as insider information on the coolest and the nerdiest places to stay, eat, and drink!
