West-Coast Mashup

Wow, look at all the people at Mashup Camp. And it’s not just hipsters from startups – lots of folks from IBM, Intel and other ... institutions.

I wasn’t able to make it, but after scanning the registration list on the wiki, I’m surprised by one thing: East-Coast media is way under-represented.

There are people from Washingtonpost.com and Salon.com, but unless other folks haven’t listed their affiliation on the wiki, that’s about it. I don’t see anybody from NYTD, Viacom, NBC/Universal, Reed or Hearst. The companies they spend all their time worrying about – Google, Yahoo, Microsoft, AOL, IAC – are out in force.
