A fictional character on The L Word, Megan Swisher, was named after power-lesbian couple Kara Swisher, the AllThingsD blogger, and Megan Smith, a vice president at Google, Mombian readers note.

Was there a single stereotype of this fogbound city missed in last night’s party for the Electronic Frontier Foundation? Full-arm sleeve tattoos, white people with dreadlocks, Web poseurs, old guys in tie-dye shirts. Hands off the Internet — and off me, you dirty zippies! Capping off the party’s self-congratulations, the world’s most pretentious new chocolatier, Louis Rossetto, founder of Wired, catered the event. These aren’t just chocolates, people — they’re a Bengali typhoon of flavor.

This week’s Valleywag Friday at Moose’s in North Beach doubles as a going-away party for CNET’s new TV star Natali Del Conte. She moves to New York next week. Be sure to dress rock-star, because StyleDiary.net entrepreneuse Patricia Handschiegel will roll in from Los Angeles with her posse. Natali has to leave at 7 p.m. sharp, so don’t be late. Drinking and crying will carry on until closing time. Gossip and handbag advice for all!
