I have a lot of experience, but not a complete degree. I live in Texas currently, so I have no real "ins" out in Silicon Valley. I want to get into either a startup or a job less time-consuming than my current one. The first gives me startup experiences, while the latter gives me time to work on my own projects. Any tips would be GREATLY appreciated.

If you're a programmer, there's no need for having an 'in'. There's plenty of work. Just show up.

And when it comes time to negotiate salary or rate remember that they need to be paying you quite a lot more than you were making in Texas.
