I started Nerd Stalker with a passion for all things tech, design and entrepreneurs with nothing more than a hand held video camera. I have been a systems administrator, front end developer, interaction designer, enterprise content management systems expert, search and web analytics point since the early 90's. I've worked with several bay area startups and enterprises and rode a few booms and busts. I wanted to present all of the amazing individuals that I am surrounded with in a no drama, irreverent, and real way. Nerd Stalker is now a collective of contributors who share this passion with a zeal. All of us do this for little to no money so that we can be part of something different, real, and special, will you join us by contributing a story or watching? We think the best of you will.
Our deepest thanks,
Adolfo Foronda, Greg Viloria and the team.
