I felt compelled to write here - even though I'm a bit late (and perhaps I'm avoiding late night work) - after reading the comments above - because as you know, we've sponsored several of these MeetUps now. From Silicon Valley to NYC, Boston to LA, they each have a unique feeling. And that's part of what makes them so great. A passion for technology and innovation brings different folks together from all around the country - heck, the world. It's an excellent thing. The complaints about the music and the inability to network couldn't be more inaccurate. Like I said, we've been at almost every one of these parties and this by far was the best for us from a networking perspective. People were so friendly, approachable and interesting. We met a ton of great new contacts - from tech companies to chefs, celebrities to TV hosts. Maybe it was just our light up glasses but it was a great night for networking from our perspective. And great to see you all as well, of course. See you again soon. Chris Mike, Heather and Jeanne,

And lots of people signed up for Dimdim Free at our stand! ('cuz it only takes 20 secs) I was struck by how many people asked us how we're making money (answer: subscription fees for Enterprise & Pro editions) and how many also congratulated us on our same-day launch.

It was good briefly meeting you. My only complaint with the event was the club lighting which was too dark for what I considered to be more of a networking event.
