KamilionIf you're looking for people to meet, there's a place in Mountain View called Hacker Dojo. Sometimes they have events; and there's a lot of cool people to meet at those.00:09
Kamilionmost of the other times, you'll find people using the building as an office00:09
Kamilionand there's nothing interesting going on00:09
Kamilionbut they have a corkboard/bulletin board which is useful to check from time to time, or post something on.00:10
Kamilionand I mean that in the physical sense00:10
Nairwolfokay, I'll see that ;)00:11

Nairwolfvery impressive00:20
Kamilionthere is a two-story diesel train that runs from the east tip of san francisco "San francisco caltrain station" to south san jose called Caltrain00:21
Kamilionanother electric tram called BART between oakland, san francisco, and millbrae00:21
Kamilionwhich connects with caltrain00:21

Nairwolfokay, nice ;)00:22
NairwolfI will be around Milpitas00:23
Kamilionthe easiest way to get around is by mass transit, but it takes some time00:23
Kamilion(the stars are places I've bookmarked in google(00:23
Nairwolfah, it's that, okay ;)00:23
Kamilionthere's something around 6 million people in the south area alone00:24

Kamilionthe two bridges in the center have no real mass transit links00:25
Kamilionso unfortunately, you're stuck going around the water the long way00:25
Kamilionyour best bet for finding housing for working in milpitas is in fremont00:25
Kamilionand there is a BART station in both milpitas and fremont00:26
Kamilionmilpitas is the end of the line for bart in the southgoing direction00:26
Nairwolfokay, thanks, I'll check this00:26
Kamilionso the only link between san jose to the south and milpitas to the north is by bus00:26
KamilionBART uses dedicated tracks; the bus gets caught in traffic.00:27
