GigaOm & TheLadders.com Party

You know Silicon Valley is booming when the parties make a comeback.

Last week, GigaOm, the tech blog run by Om Malik, and online recruiting firm, TheLadders.com hosted a party at San Francisco's Pier 38.

The party was great with VCs, startup CEOs and more recruiters than I have ever seen in one place. The best part for me? A chance to meet many of my former Red Herring colleagues.

My most interesting conversation was with Wagner James Au, a writer for GigaOm whose coverage of the video game industry is very interesting. James is also writing a book on the virtual world of Second Life and hopes to have it out next year.

Here's a Wired blog report on the event and pictures from Brian Solis.

Next week, I have another party to go--an informal drinks hour hosted by Trend Micro's Mike Haro and Horn Group's Robb Henshaw.
