Veterans on the NYC tech scene will remember Silicon Alley Reporter, Jason Calcanis’ print publication that went from DIY to a successful glossy in the 90’s before being snapped up by Dow Jones, who then went on to, as is too often the case in such circumstances, kill it off.
Now the name has been revived by young enterpriser Gary Sharma, who discovered the trademark was defunct. He’s turned it into an online calendar of city tech-related events that is bound to be a welcome and valuable addition to many bookmark lists.
