As featured on TechCrunch, RWW etc. back in the day. I'm the director if you have any questions.
What would you say has changed the most since then?
Well, at the time I was told by one prospective interviewee that, aside from Google, there wasn't anything interesting going on in the valley. That's because it was still recovering from the dot com boom/bust.
Aside from being not true - sometimes the most interesting things happen when money is scarce - I found the place to be in a very reflective mood, which benefited the documentary and I think I managed to capture quite well on film.
We finished editing in 2006, by which time TechCrunch, whom I now write for, was founded, based on the web's second coming and the beginning of the startup 'renaissance' (if we can call it that) we see today. And, as the film concludes, Silicon Valley is everywhere now.
