32 comments »

Netvibes is throwing a party for 600 of their closest friends to celebrate the upcoming release of “Netvibes Universe” (look for our post on it soon). The party is free to attend, but you have to RSVP. Netvibes founder Tariq Krim agreed to give the last fifty invitations away to TechCrunch readers. If you’d like to attend, RSVP now at eco.netvibes.com/sfparty/. After the 50 slots are gone the site will start to create a waiting list.

Please only RSVP if you fully intend to actually go. Otherwise you’ll be keeping someone else out.

Date: April 16, 2007
Time: 9 pm
Location: 111 Minna St., San Francisco, CA 94105

    I like how this post is timed to be read by a tired, bay area kid getting ready to walk for a Peets coffee on University.

    I miss Cali. Everything cool only happens there. I miss the weather and the waves most though.

    Put me down as a +1, if possible. Thanks!

    600 of their “closest friends”, of which 50 are TC readers picked at random.

    Hmm.

    I love how the “we’re giving away 50 free invites to the netvibes party” is seemingly tied to the “look for our post on it (their new release) soon”.

    Sort of like “George Bush let me stay at his ranch” so “look for my analysis of his latest policy soon”.

    It’s well advised to have editorial and promotional divisions

    Del Taco is open ’til 2am and just a couple blocks from Minna, so if you get hungry after the cocktails…

    Mich you give people 50 tickets ; and they complain ..

    - you need to charge / since they are irrational they may like it than being able to access tc free

    - not a elite facist,RB

    Tariq,
    My name is Ruby and I will be there ready for you. I am not only a hot, 25 year-old web developer, but I am 5′9″, 130 pounds with a C bust and blonde hair and blue eyes. I was born in Europe but moved to the United States when I was 5. I have been programming and driving men crazy since I was 12. I can’t wait to see your NetVibes Universe and introduce you to my universe. I’m sure the vibes will be awesome. They don’t call me Ruby on Rails for nothing if you know what I mean and can’t wait to meet some hot startup CEOs on Monday to show me their frameworks. I’ll see you there honey.

    Nice pictures. Parties in Paris seem like they are slightly more fun than parties in Silicon Valley.
