WANNABE'S INFILTRATE THE BAY
So, I've read a few articles related to this new reality series called "Start Ups - Silicon Valley." A lot of people from the tech community seem to be rather offended that the show decided to glamorize the business of entrepreneurship and the tech industry on a whole. Most people felt that there would be a flock of wannabe's infiltrating the Bay Area which would result in an off balance in the tech culture that has been so carefully orchestrated in this particular community. In my opinion Silicon Valley should be excited about this new possible influx of raw young talent. It could be a great opportunity to mold people by the masses so that they can really appreciate the culture and get involved in the business of technology. Shows like this have the potential to peak the interest of people all around the world. Yes, it may be over dramatized but it's purpose is for entertainment and truth be told, it has the potential to make people want to learn more about the industry. What are your thoughts? Does Silicon Valley need new people with fresh and different perspectives or should we send these wannabe's running for the hills?

I think the promise of a ready VC funding is all that is needed to get people to come to the San Francisco Bay Area in order to seek their fortune and build businesses in the tech industry. No cringe worthy TV show needed... but of course no one is going to stop the networks from making another one.
