ISSUE 09 DECEMBER 2011

Happy Friday!

There are a few company holiday parties taking place this week, we hope you've

been enjoying the good times! If you haven't had your holiday party yet, we're sure

it'll be great fun.

Earlier today I uploaded the 'SocMed Brochure and Agenda' within meetup

documents. Check it out. Find out more about our event next Tuesday and please

do share it with anyone who would benefit from attending. We have three startups

presenting and one special guest (via Google Hangout), details will be released on

Monday morning. There will be drinks and some snacks + some holiday cheer!

Hope to see / meet you next week.

Cheers,

Luisa

Live: Facebook To Open Engineering Office In NYC December 04, 2011

Facebook is holding a special event this afternoon at its office in New York City. The

event is a little strange, in that Facebook only sent invites out this morning which

may be because it will feature U.S. Senator Charles Schumer (D-NY) and NYC Mayor

Michael Bloomberg. The event will also include Facebook COO Sheryl Sandberg and

VP of Engineering Mike Schroepfer.

Same Same, but Different:

15 Parallels Between Silicon Alley and Silicon Valley December 4, 2011

For all the playful sparring between Americas bi-costal tech hubs, the Alley and

are doing their part to unite East and West, poaching talented startups for their

favorite incubators and dangling technical co-founders like carrots on a stick.
