i wanted to use that along with which tech companies you know as a way to define people that are "tech savvy". So my crude method was to take top compsci/eng schools and use a gradient of different technology startups. make sense? happy to take suggestions.

I have a corollary to this question, via this survey on VCs trying to identify which ones people would go back to or would want their investment.

I'm doing quick 3 min survey on what people think about certain venture capital firms and see if there is any correlation to their industry, location, school etc. Will post results back here upon completion.

Like Asana or Twitter which were "extra" ideas at Facebook and Odeo, if they can stand on their own feet they might be separate companies altogether that can be spun out.
