Well, are you going?
I don’t think I will be attending… If you are in the area (SF/Mid Peninsula) and wanted to get together for coffee or drinks and Prosper/Website/Blog discussion I would be interested.
I live close enough. I guess I wasn’t worth inviting. Who knew there was a Silicon Valley Microfinance Network?
Sounds fun but unfortunately I don’t live in the area.
