Anyone have good stories about Chris Sacca, Google's head of special initiatives, who sounds as puffed up as his title would suggest? We're in the market.

    Chris is another version of Auren Hoffman. Knows a ton of people but with no real actual skills.

    "puffed up" is about the last phrase I would use to describe Chris-
    I worked with him for a bit, and would characterize him as just an all-around "good guy"(TM)- both in and outside of the office.

    I bet we'd all sound puffed up in certain lights. What have you done today to make the world a better place? I've known Chris for 10+ years and he carries through and works hard. Forget his title, look at his actions.

    Back in high school when I was working for Chris as a congressional page, he used to send me suggestive instant messages.

    Me thinks he's indeed puffed up... He may work hard, but the times I've met him, he's been an inveterate name-dropper and a big-time espouser of the "Nobody's going to EVER beat Google" screed that too many people there have seemed to embrace.
