Mark Jen (formerly of Google, formerly of Microsoft) - Blogger
Who is that in this blurry picture?

Why, it’s Mark Jen.
Who is Mark Jen? Well… there are some news stories about him.
*HINT* A sample headline reads ‘Blogger Mark Jen Fired from Google’
Here’s his old business card:

Mark’s an interesting guy. Sounds like he’s learned a lot about life in the last few days. And his story just goes to show that there’s no such thing as bad publicity.
Here’s a picture of Scoble who was also there:

I’ve met Scoble before, even been interviewed - but I hadn’t been to a geek dinner before. Now I have!
UPDATE: Scoble has posted more about meeting with Mark Jen.

You’re right I’m a vulture. I even got a ride from him back to my car. Yep. I guess that makes me a vulture.

That’s Mark Jen on left
If I managed a tech firm in Silicon Valley, I’d have offered Mark a job as soon as I heard the news. Why? An ex-Googler is out of job, does anyone need a better reason?
