Marc Benioff's still schmoozing reporters. When the publicity-mad web billionaire is not having them detained, of course. Wall Street Journal reporters say that, having accused one of the newspaper's meekest reporters of being a stalker, he's now trying to make up with golfing invitations to Paul Steiger, the Journal's managing editor. Last week, in New York, a dinner discussion on venture philanthropy, a suitably profligate freebie for the journalists invited, to which he'd invited Matthew Bishop, from The Economist, Blaise Zerega, managing editor of Portfolio, Conde Nast's forthcoming business magazine, and others. And, if you're in San Francisco on December 12th, don't miss this lunch, email invitation below, at the fancy Clift Hotel:
