Everyone's talking about "social this, social that" online, but why not venture out and socialize with actual people and not Fadbook profiles? Today, Under the Radar is showcasing some recent startups in social media and entertainment. It's being held at the Microsoft Campus, making it much easier for softies to scope out companies and scoop them into their deep pockets. Later, IxDA-SF is talking about how to improve design over at the Adaptive Path offices in San Francisco. The Bay Area Video Coalition is hosting "Innovation Salon V: The Gaming (R)Evolution: Creating Social Change Through Games" at Yerba Buena Center for the Arts, with a panel of gaming experts. If you're willing to abandon your virtual friends on Xbox Live long enough to attend, that is.
