Steve Gehlen had many great things to say about the future of Portland, the creative and tech community, and how he first got into technology. He mentioned MIT, convergence culture, and the importance of community. Then, as a surprise, he took out a banjo and played us as song, making this episode the first musical Hazelnut Tech Talk since Derrek Wayne’s brief interlude into HTT Episode 2).

Steve has had the unique position of pioneering the entrance of technology into enterprise businesses. He is also the president and founder of Portland’s Internet Strategy Forum.

If you happen to be attending Inverge, I (Amber Case) will be speaking at 1Pm on Friday, the 5th of September. The presentation title will be “From Telephone to Tweetup: an abbreviated history of technology and social exchange“.

.In this Episode of Hazelnut Tech Talk, we bring you Sarah Lacy, columnist for BusinessWeek. During the podcast, Lacey talks about her new book, Once You’re Lucky, Twice You’re Good: the Rebirth of Silicon Valley and the Rise of Web 2.0, how she organizes a billion things a day, her decade of experience with tech reporting, and how Silicon Valley compares to the Portland Tech Scene.

The Podcast was recorded at the Green Dragon, a Portland bar that generously hosts a great number of Tech Events, including a weekly Beer and Blog that allows much of the community to get together and share Tech.

Lacey arrived in Portland, Oregon very late last evening after riding with us on the Gnomedex Iterasi bus from Seattle, Washington.
