City Bakery After PaperlessPost

I am dropping by the PaperlessPost offices this afternoon. I will be there for about two hours, maybe two and a half. The idea is to talk to Alexa for about 60 to 90 minutes, then talk to some of her key people for 10 to 15 minutes each.

Then I am hoping to walk over to City Bakery to tidy up my papers and collect my thoughts, jot down some additional notes on my own. 3 West 18th Street.

I think I might end up doing a half dozen posts on this gang. This is the fourth post on Alexa already. I think I will have done 10 or more by the time I am through.

Dumbo And Union Square

Image via WikipediaI am headed to Union Square Friday afternoon to spend a few hours with the PaperlessPost team and its fearless leader Alexa Herschfeld. I had a voice mail from her Wednesday and Google Voice had transcribed her name as Celexa Ourselves. Not good, Google Voice, not good.

And to me it is feeling like I am headed to Dumbo. Dumbo and Union Square are two places in town that have tech clusters. There are a whole bunch of tech startups congregated in those two locales.

If there are other such clusters in the city, I am not aware of them as of yet. I am surprised there are not similar clusters in Williamsburg and Chinatown. I know of at least one major tech company that is based out of Chinatown, but I don't think you would call that a cluster.

Toshiba Satellite To Macbook To Chrome Notebook

Image via WikipediaOn my grand journey to the Chrome Notebook, I have decided to give the Macbook a try for a few days. Then it is Chrome Notebook all the time for me. The switch is going to be total. There is just something about the Chrome browser.

I am on a Macbook right now. But not for long. My Chrome Notebook is on the way. I have an email directly from Google.

I have a message for you MacBook users. The thing about the Chrome Notebook is you can't buy it out there in the market. It just does not exist. It is too futuristic to hit the ground right now. It is too cutting edge.

You are going to have to wait for about, ummm, six months. Sorry. Life is unfair. You are just going to have to wait. There are some things money can't buy. Right now a Chrome Notebook is one of them.
