I moved back to the bay area about half a year ago, currently work as a salaried employee but I would like to start taking on some corp to corp work. I do realize what this entails and my plan is to do this properly, where I am actually independent, only go on-site for meetings, etc and would eventually have more than 1 client.

I'm interested to possibly work with startups or more established companies, have a background in some of the newer web technologies as well as Java-based search engines, etc. I'm curious if anyone has advice as far as where I can get the most "bang for my buck" as far as networking with people who are open to contracting out work on a corp to corp basis, I'm fairly busy as is and it seems not everyone is open to this (they just want full-time in-house employee). Would appreciate any advice.
