The big TechCrunch50 Conference [1] kicked off yesterday at the San Francisco Design Center Concourse, with the best new tech startups launching their companies in front of the public — yes Ashton and Demi were there [2]! And to celebrate the day one festivities was the big MySpace party last night at Mezzanine. I not only got to chat with Sean Parker, the cofounder of Napster, and TechCrunch founder Michael Arrington — who said this year's turnout was much better than last year's — but I was able to catch up with the famous Samantha Ronson [3], who was DJing at the event, and ask her some geeky questions!

• BlackBerry or iPhone Owner? "I actually have both."
• Are you a Mac or PC Fan? "Mac all the way. PCs are just hard to figure out and not user friendly whatsoever."
• What software do use on your laptop for spinning tunes? "Sonar by Cakewalk."
