Post Card from Silicon Valley - Part two
This week the podcast is the final recording from Silicon Valley, California. This time, we're taking a look at how history and society work along side the new technology that is created in the area.
If we mentioned a place that you would like to visit online, then you can find all the links right here:

That was the final post card from Silicon Valley and hopefully a normal service will return next week. It's been a lot of fun learning more about the area and recording on location. Thanks to everyone who allowed me to intrude upon their coffee time and of course for all of the help and advice from local resident and guide Carolyn Lutticken.
