Between two years ago and now, San Francisco could very well have been the fastest growing area," said Marie Jones, director of business assistance at the San Francisco Partnership, a nonprofit economic development group.The study shows that in tech employment within the Bay area, San Francisco, at 20th, was upstaged by Oakland, ranked 17th.San Jose residents were the most wired in the nation, with a computer in 77 percent of households and Internet access in 66 percent.Jones said the study's findings on other cities' booming high-tech industries aren't surprising."Everyone is trying to say they're as big as San Jose. San Jose doesn't play that game. They know they're the biggest," Jones said. Even so, she added, "the idea that one city should have all the growth is kind of silly."
