HOT NEW PRODUCTS
+ I-POD
+ Product Red
+ Cellphones
+ TIVO
+ I-Phone
My only reason for spending a year in silicon valley instead of the elusive Year in Provence is that I am certainly either going to develop the most outstanding new high-tech product of the year or land the ultimate high paying high tech consulting assignment. A year later it is endless chaos, endless low-paying jobs and only a dfew very good new product ideads going nowhere. Hence, in between time , research becomes crib notes that could possibly be a newsletter or newsgroup called “valleylist” in deference to the many services that reference silicon valley or the silicon gulch or other CPU-specific references to high-tech in the S.F. bay area. The city of San Jose claims to be the capital of high tech, a few blocks past City Hall there is not a thing except urban blight and a light rail to downtown Milpitas where SUN is located. Oracle is out there in Redwood City. Apple the big surprise leader again this year is out there in Cupertino. Why travel to Redwood Washington for Microsoft products when you can order almost all of it online and never leave the comfort of your office, until after 5:00pm that is. E-Bay with the massive discounted on-line auction service of course headquartered in San Jose may perhaps be the best indication that the location is indeed the message because that’s how the generalized job search in San Jose feels to a lot of people, and if not E-Bay, then it’s other low tech companies of the 21st century, also new low end not quite ghetto like business organizations. Most baffling are the endless CISCO campuses that extend everywhere approaching the San Jose Santa Clara border that do not have anybody ever in spite of the obvious need to list all kinds of new employment opportunities on all the employment boards. Consumer products coming out of the valleylist geographic scope are difficult to pin down even though the are all available through the internet. I contacted a bunch of people, including the infamous commrades of the LInkedIn group on how to map out the valleylist area specifically in regards to high tech products and consumers and the compaines and people who handle those products and since the answer was nil I found myself soliciting help from past associates at Apple about where in the heck is the highly sought after geocode for valleylist in the silicon valley area only to receive the usual “on vacation reply” indicating that something other than business was afoot. Suggestions welcome. The mapping services know the answer. Next week my brand new valleylist website service design document. In the meantime send ideas, suggestions, press releases to valleylist_news@yahoo.com.

Money, proposals, letters, jointventure proposals, etc… welcome. Most needed for this startup is a decent laptop, fully equipped wi-fi ready. Nobody has seen anything like trying to find silicon valley starting with San Jose. valleylist is the correct response.
