Comment on The story of the ‘secret’ room at Pixar, frequented by Steve Jobs

Comments

I'm always surprised I've never heard anything about the similar room at Facebook's old California ave. hq. There was a secret door in the basement to a small "situation room" type place.

Do you know if anybody has pictures? That sounds interesting.

I remember seeing a photo of it once when they were about to launch a new product. I can't seem to find it but I think Robert Scoble took it so try his Flickr account.

Edit: Here is the photo: http://www.flickr.com/photos/scobleizer/5179450270/

Scoble calls it the War Room but I presume it's the same place. More here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/scobleizer/tags/facebook/

That's a conference room at the St. Regis in San Francisco.

That is not the room I am talking about.

I wish. The story with me was that I had already quit to go to another startup. I knew there was a rumor about a secret room so I decided to go look for it. I found it and it was pretty awesome. Maybe 10 Aeron chairs around a glass and metal table with 3-4 50" LED-TVs on the wall. Wish I had taken a picture but I was already pretty nervous I was somewhere I wasn't supposed to be.
