Ask HN: Computer tourism

1 pointadregan6 comments

Hello all. I'm heading to the Bay Area for the first time, and I have some time to kill. Can you recommend some must see/do activities related to the history (or present) of computing? Thus far, I've planned to visit the computer history museum, but beyond that, I don't know what's what.

How urgently do you want this - I have a collection of recommendations people have been sending me over time, but they are still in raw form and need sorting. I can do the processing, but it will take a little time.

When do you need this by?

Thanks! No need for processing as I'm fairly "in the moment," if you catch my drift.

Maybe you could pick your favorite (or 2 favorites). I am traveling for a wedding, so I won't be able to do a great deal, but I have a couple of days before other folks start arriving.

I have to process them, as there are many recommendations across tens of emails. I'll see what I can do in the next day or so, unless you tell me that would be too late, in which case I'll try to do it in the next few hours.

I don't want to put you out, but tomorrow will be the best day I have to indulge in seeing the computing sites.

Apologies, too short a time-scale for me 8-(

Sorry.

No problem! Thanks for trying. Hope you put out a little travel guide with all your material.
