Congrats to Lunch 2.0
The Power Lunch, Cafeteria-Style - WSJ.com
The concept — dubbed Lunch 2.0 by its founders — has grown into a social-networking phenomenon that now draws hundreds of engineers, venture capitalists, and even summer interns to various companies for free meals and conversation. It used to be that the group, which initially consisted of fewer than 10 people, practically had to sneak through a company’s doors. Some attendees would get in with friends who were employees, while others sneaked by security. (Google, where it all started, allows employees to bring guests to the company’s cafeteria. Mr. Jen got in with a friend who worked there.)
Congrats to the folks at Lunch 2.0 on the mention in the WSJ!
Wow, I guess I haven’t been to one so long that they now regularly have 200-300 people. I think the last one I went to was the one I helped Bubba hold at Microsoft. Crimminy!

We’ll see what we can do about getting Microsoft to host again.
Until then, I hope the article brought back some fond memories of the old days.
