Great idea! Tips on how to get around, good local restaurants (if you
like Vietnamese, San Jose is the place), and other things to do when you
need a break... There is really a great deal just a short distance
away, but you have to know how to get there. It's possible there was
something like this last year, but I live in the area so I didn't look
for it.
I'm in full agreement that a conference is just that much better when it
includes a little variety, a chance to get away from the drab convention
hall, and a chance to socialize a little.
One thing I suggest is to attend the Quiz Show (Wed 8pm) or other "after
hours" activities. Great fun, and a good way to hook up with people for
dinner or drinks away from the center.

The area by the Santa Clara convention center is pretty dead, but you
can take the light rail to downtown San Jose and there is a pretty
lively nightlife there, lots of interesting restaurants, The Tech Museum
and other things depending on you interests.
Also there are lots more interesting places to eat than sizzler within
in 5 minute drive of the convention center.
Perhaps what is needed is either a nice cheatsheet of what to do and
where to go?
Or perhaps some of the locals could volunteer to be "ambassadors" and
take people with similar interests to local activities, restaurants or
points of interest.
