I think that’s one of the reasons that many of the most interesting bay area startups are choosing to locate themselves in the city. I see it first hand in Los Angeles where given the growth of YouTube networks the worlds of art & technology are colliding. As a result younger people are creating startups because they can.

It’s not my goal to bash anyone.
