My escape for the unusually was free music at the 33rd annual tapestry fair sensationally HUSH stole the show with the best power pop in decades. As usual the san jose police department was no where to be found – - vacation? The highlight for the hardest working people around was the NVIDIA GeForce Lan Guiness World Record Party for the longest videogame LAN party ever.People promised me a free ticket to the NVIDIA big end of summer conference. For visual computer people it’s a big problem. The free ticket for the press people like everything else in San Jose went to the police department gang. NVIDIA is on the “valleylist” alpha list of important silicon valley companies went from $ 0 in 1993 to $ 7B in 2008 market value by inventing a new kind of computer processor called the GPU [as opposed to the CPU]. The NVIDIA founder Jen-Hsun Huang is featured speaker and real leader for silicon valley. Their thing is high performance processors for use in graphics interactive computing and 3-D design and computer games. In the meantime all Yahoo could come up with was a new email product called Zimba. Market cap $ 26.11B.MAYOR OF THE WEEK Hurricain Gustav and New Orleans again unable to cope pleading to have no rioting or looting. A distant cry from safe unsymetrical silicon valley where such criminal problems simply do not happen. I thought about a very experienced mayor other than Gavin Newsom and ended up with Dolly Sandoval of Cupertino. The big business people who are recruited by the big political parties recently disappeared into the big political party machine. Who’s on the list for the rest of the century – - stay tuned to “valleylist” and the list of 21st century business people in politics. It’s a list of the mayors in the 15 largest cities in silicon valley and their high tech position and platform.CONCLUSION The bad news is that the san jose police decided to go on vacation and continue to screw around with business only to find out that their high profile local hostage continues as a problem they cannot or do not want to solve. A new kind of processor took NVIDIA from $0 to $ 4.1 B in sales in a few years. Most of us are still not sure how internet social groups make money let alone lead to a new generation of young internet millionaires.Google jumped to the big money lead by developing a new way to maximize advertising revenues based on a new proprietary advertising model that generates better results and more money.NVIDIA sells to computer companies and rarely advertises on google unless they want to push the value of their proprietary computer processor design and the great graphics. People don’t expect an NVIDIA advertising sales person to contact them at their home to sell a new processor to the wrong people at the wrong time. And they don’t expect the san jose police department to hold people hostage and help their gang turn hostages into people who nail people and eliminate people.I’m not shocked. It’s their way of doing business. Solving problems is too much work. People who live and work in silicon valley really love high tech because there is real value in the product itself. Otherwise just send it back and get a new product. Politics in silicon valley is way behind the technology as well as the world class level that most silicon valley companies transact business. The new political environment in silicon valley is already results oriented with Washington D.C. still a lost cause where anybody who takes somebody hostage is gone already.NING internet social groups about money [GROW YOUR OWN] Money and You Money Makers Scared Money Motivation With Money Lunch Money Punks Saving Time And Money Stealth Money Maker YAHOO GROUPS about money [YAHOO_GROUPS] get-money-online global-money money_manager moneyfolders_unite ad-promotion economic-rebelscontent and design exclusive to valleylistsponsor rates $5,000 a week or $165,000 first yearspecial editions – - new product actions – - custom mailings negotiable pub@thevalleylist. com
