It's a long story, but the short version is that I've never met Mike Arrington.
I've spoken to Mike, and I've competed with Mike, and I've been annoyed by Mike, and I've been blown away by Mike, and I've been bludgeoned by Mike, and I've been inspired by Mike, and I've written about Mike, and I've followed Mike, but I've never actually met Mike.
So I'm stoked that I'm finally going to!
And I'm also excited that this meeting is going to take place on stage at our first west coast conference, IGNITION West, which will be on March 21 in San Francisco.
The conference is focused on Mobile, and we're going to have many other awesome startups, executives, and investors there. But I'm already looking forward to this particular chat.
Mike Arrington and I have a boatload to talk about. Including:
- Him
- Me
- The digital media business
- AOL
- Yahoo
- Apple
- Startups
- Angel-gate
- The Silicon Valley techo-chamber
- The overpopulated venture business
- The power of the (digital) pen
- And so on...
So we're going to schedule a good long interview that you won't want to miss.
So get a ticket now, while they're still selling at this awesome early-bird rate (with a special deal for startups).
Look forward to seeing you in March!
