  • We scouted the homes of the top tech executives, and they all live in this San Francisco suburb for the 1%

    Business Insider – Tech

    The celebrities of Silicon Valley live private lives. We don't know much about them outside of the mega-companies they lead, though it's fun to speculate on the shoes they wear, the restaurants where they feast, and their comings and goings at Burning Man.
