Facebook-Dev Happy-Lunch: Lunch 2.0 Happy Hour @ Facebook in Palo Alto
I heard a lot of whining recently about how we seem to be having a bunch of Lunch 2.0’s in “the city” and not enough in the cradle of Lunch 2.0 civilization: Silicon Valley. Bah! Do you have any idea how much work it is to take credit for all these events that other people do?
Have you heard of the high-flying social network in Palo Alto called Facebook. Well, all the hard work has paid off. Sure it took placing some well placed bribes (like creating a Lunch 2.0 group on Facebook—join it) and breaking out the wooden spoons (don’t ask), but we finally convinced them to host a Lunch 2.0, even though the company is bursting at the seams and space is tight—something about “growing so fast that the caterers are freaking out.”
Sure, that means that this Lunch is going to be in the evening…as a happy hour. But it promises to be just as geeky as ever: Check out the apps built at their latest hackathon, learn more about how you can build technology on the kick-ass Facebook Platform, enjoy a snack (note to Facebook: I’m partial to Cheetos and Frito Lays… and watermelon
).

Hoping there’s room for one more — can’t seem to get to the event page on Facebook right now. Good day for the meetup… assuming all goes well, we’re launching our Facebook app today.

[...] Facebook hosted Lunch 2.0 (it was really a Dinner) at their headquarters two nights ago, Scoble called this a ‘point of inflection: “…last night I was at the Facebook party aka “Lunch 2.0.” I met Mark Zuckerberg and his sister, Randi, and a ton of Facebook employees and executives. It is one of those parties that in about five years we’ll all be looking back on as a major inflection point in the valley. I stayed until the very end. In fact, even after the party ended a small group of us hang outside of Facebook’s offices and kept talking about what is going to happen in social networking.” [...]

[...] At dinner after the Facebook Lunch 2.0, a bunch of us at the table were trying to guess people’s ethnicity. Being in California, the correct answer might be like “part Paraguayan, part Uzbek” and shit like that. Half the people I know probably fucked up the scantrons when they applied to college and had to fill in the ethnicity bubbles. [...]

Have you ever considered adding more videos to your blog posts to keep the readers more entertained? I mean I just read through the entire article of yours and it was quite good but since I’m more of a visual learner,I found that to be more helpful well let me know how it turns out. This is good…thanks for sharing
