Anyone have any interesting plans for activities outside the heavy agenda during Summit next month? I'm hoping to spend at least a little time exploring the area beyond the hotel and convention center. I've been to San Fran many times but have seen little past meetings and conferences. any suggestions?

Oh man, there are a number of places to go:
Tourist Attractions
- Lombard Street
- Ghiradelli Square
- Buena Vista Cafe (Supposed birthplace of the Irish Coffee)
- Coit Tower
- Alcatraz
- Alamo Sq. Park (Full House houses)

Not So Tourist
- Delores Park (http://www.flickr.com/photos/75742148@N07/8537741468/)
- Chestnut St in the Marina
   - Shops, Restaurants
- Fillmore Street
- Off the Grid (http://offthegridsf.com/)
   - Food Trucks pop up in the city, great food!
   - Schedule isn't up yet for the week of the conference, but I would check back next week

If you are in the mood for a pricy, but fantastic dinner, I would recommend the House of Prime Rib.

Whenever visiting San Fran for a conference, I try to sneak away either to Chinatown or the Ferry Building marketplace for lunch or a snack.

It'll be my first time at Summit (yay!) and it's been a while since I've been to San Francisco so I plan on using Yelp in the next few weeks to come up with an excel spreadsheet game plan on places to visit, and most importantly for me, eat. I'm all ears for suggestions as well!

    Big fan of the Alcatraz tour. You get a beautiful view of the city, a boat trip and very unique tour in a single experience.

    "Top of the Mark" is a great place to grab a drink or dinner. It's on the top of a very tall building which gives you gorgeous 360 views of the city!
