Ask HN: Visiting Mountain View for the first time. Where should I go?
I'm taking a trip to Mountain View for the first time. What should I not miss? (startups - I wonder if Zappos still give free tour, VCs, coffeeshops, restaurants, incubators, incubating office spaces, historical sites, etc)
- seanmccann 16y agoIt really depends what kind of stuff you are into but I'd recommend checking out the Computer History Museum. There is a lot of awesome historical stuff there, and it is free. It might be quite boring if you're not into computers though. http://www.computerhistory.org/ http://www.computerhistory.org/
- startuprules 16y agoOo, I finally will get to see a punchcard computer in person! Very cool, thanks! Reminds me of the time I accidently found a Thomas Edison exhibit in Bandai Museum outside Tokyo.
- rmk 16y agoIt might be a good time to see it because I think a replica of the difference engine is on display there... pretty cool: http://computerhistory.org/babbage/ http://computerhistory.org/babbage/
