Curry takes on Silicon Valley Day 6: TuneIn,
Target, San Francisco!
3/13/2015
In the morning we met with Andrew Brock at TuneIn.
Andrew told us his story about how he came to TuneIn. He worked for a radio
station and eventually joined TuneIn. TuneIn basically broadcasts radio
stations of various sizes, in addition to broadcasting podcasts. We also got a
super soft t-shirt from Tunein, which was pretty cool.
Then we went to see Shawn Edge at Target. He told
us about the research and development side of Target, which was pretty
interesting. I didn’t expect Target to have much engineering or R&D. He
presented to us about engineering at Target. Some Target engineers work on
mobile games or apps for mobile devices. Target gave us some swag, including a portable
mobile device charger, which was awesome.
Next was San Francisco. I met up with a friend
from Curry, and she took me around San Fran. We ate (authentic?) Mexican food
in the Mission district (I think it was the Mission). We drove around the
Mission, through the Castro, and up a hill where we could see all of SF. We
also walked along the beach by the Golden Gate Bridge and played with the dogs.
