Sounds like a lot of fun and opportunities! I'd sure just like to go to the states some day... but for now I'll just stay in Denmark :) As for recommendations, it's pretty hard since I've never been to the states, but I'd sure like to go and see Venice Beach if I ever get the chance… Congrats Paul!

It turns out that blogs are actually a really good way to attract internship/job offers. If you make something good, people will notice! Good luck this summer! Have fun. My only advice for the SF area would be to eat at an "In 'N Out". I didn't believe it until I finally tried it for myself, but it's the only fast food that I would consider truly "good". Tasty.

I used to live in Sunnyvale a few years back when I worked for Netscape (before AOL), I was a college recruiter. It's a nice place and the people are fairly friendly. I would definatley check out the places that Matt suggested and I'm sure your new co-workers will have a bunch of suggestions as well. Interns are treated like royalty in the Valley so make the most of it and definatley network as much as you can. If you need any information about the area, drop me a line, I'd be more than happy to assist. BTW: I'm still in the area if you need a tour guide. Paul, congrats!!!
