Any2/Connectivity 2007 at One Wilshire in Los Angeles

Yesterday, I went for a day trip to Los Angeles to the One Wilshire telco hotel (considered to be the most densely interconnected buildings on the planet) for the Any2 Peering Exchange member meeting. Pretty neat trip. We are going to establish our presence down there as of the first, in about a week. I also attended the Connectivity 2007 conference which was a schmooze-fest of all the telco/network people at the Wilshire Annex, which has 550,000 sq. feet of data center space which just opened. All of the building are owned/operated by CRG West and you can see more about their seven facilities on their website.
