There's nothing like welcoming writer Nicholas Carlson into San Francisco by trying to tout San Francisco as being better than New York — only to find out the tech events look less than sexy. There's a talk by Brad Fitzpatrick, founder of LiveJournal in about an hour. Database nerds descend on Silicon Valley, with the MySQL group meeting at the San Jose Convention Center during the Embedded Systems conference. Tonight, FountainBlue is having a "High Tech Entrepreneurs' Forum" out in Palo Alto for some serious, entrepreneurial discussions. Welcome to San Francisco, Nicholas! We promise it's usually more fun than this.
