Join Dean Takahashi as he does an interview with Zaw Thet on Spreecast today at 2:30 pm. Zaw and Dean will talk about what it’s like to be a veteran tech writer in Silicon Valley.

Dean is the lead writer for GamesBeat at VentureBeat and is part of a game trio that include Dan “Shoe” Hsu, editor in chief of GamesBeat, and Sebastian Haley, GamesBeat review editor and executive video producer. They’re ramping up coverage of games, but Dean continues to write about a number of general tech subjects as well as beats such as chips and hardware.
