Many of you SBU enthusiasts know who Trevor Blackwell is but you might not be aware of his most-recent endeavor, the Anybot (a personal robotic avatar).  As we traveled through California on our Left Coast Tour we had a chance to meet Trevor along with a few of the Anybot engineers and some people from the Y-Combinator (including Olark).  The whole crew was able to pick up the SBU fairly quickly and before long we were SBUing along the street with them at close to top speed – all while carrying the stedicam to our 5dmk2 for our daily vlog. It was really cool to meet and speak with a bunch of like-minded entrepreneurs and of course to see them lovin’ the SBU!

We knew we were in Eugene when  the fixie to road bike ratio exceeded 13:1 and half of main street was quarantined off for bicycles only.  After sifting through rows of bicycles we parked right outside of American Apparel and started ridin’ nerdy.  We met up with our buddy, Alan who took off on one of the SBU V2 demo units and began chattin’ it up.

Tomorrow we will be in downtown Sacramento (by the capital building) around noon giving demos and spreadin’ nerdiness like it’s goin’ out of style!  If you want to meet up with us go ahead and contact us:
