It's a Small World

The start-ups--I am drawn to them. This one is pretty damned cool (and relevant to my current work, even!).

Tonight I had Mediterranean/Italian dinner with Sean of babajob and babalife. Sean was e-ntroduced to me by the fabulous Gio. As it turns out, Sean's Microsoft crowd overlaps with mine (weirdly, the evening started with "Oh--do you know Peter Ford?" with whom I've only had sushi and generally have no other reason to know other than he's a likable guy); he had a former Casa del Fuego resident as a TA; and he may even have met my current roommate.

Strangely, he doesn't know Nelson, and you know he'd remember the Prettiest Man in Seattle.
