It has been four months since I last visited New York City. I had decided to give the city a pass. I didn’t want to spend more than necessary time in a cold city, considering I was going to be in Paris, Berlin and Munich, all cold and somewhat gray cities in the winter. I was hoping that by now the winter would be saying adios and weather would have turned nicer. Sadly that is not the case… It looks like a snowy, cold and wet week in the big city.

Still, it is New York. I get to hang with folks at GigaOm East. I spend time with Stacey and Derrick and also get a chance to host another awesome Structure Data event. I am interviewing Paul Maritz on stage on Wednesday. I will be meeting other cool people this week and get back to San Francisco next week. In other words, I am going to be lazy on email and also not around to meet in person.

Hope you guys have a great Sunday. It is wheels up time!
