SubZERO festival in Downtown San Jose

After gloomy weather the skies cleared up in time for the SubZERO art festival in San Jose's SoFA district. The blocked streets made way for dozens of booths and vendors, a couple of stages for live music, and of course tons of live street art, from performers to painters to just plain strange folk doing strange things. The SJ Fixed crew has a cool booth set up. During the early evening hours they had the largest crowd by a long shot, packing the street with bikes. The fest is still going on, so if you're reading this and it's still Friday, June 5, you should pack up and head to Downtown San Jose, as the street fest goes strong until around midnight. And as soon as the sun goes down, it's going to get even wilder. See you all there!

Yesterday was a beautiful day in Silicon Valley. And to be in one of the tech industry's main arteries was all the more beautiful. Mountain View, home to Google, will be the main feature in our upcoming issue, out April 6. With all it's restaurants and shops, Mountain View truly shines as a bright beacon of day and night entertainment in the valley. But you don't have to be a start-up prince or a microchip king to enjoy the spoils of quaint Mountain View. All you have to be is susceptible to the flattery of sunshine, friendly people and abundant food and shopping locales. Stay tuned for the upcoming issue all about Mountain View!

We're doing a Hi-Tech dining piece that includes uWink, an interactive dining experience created by Silicon Valley's original golden boy and founder of Atari Nolan Bushnell. Design Director Chris Schmauch and I ate here yesterday. We ordered our drinks and food right at the table via a touchscreen tablet! The cuisine was delicious (tortilla soup and caesar salad; garlic pasta) and the games were fun! We both favored the trivia on Zillionaire.
