I’m in Taiwan now and as announced last week, there will be a TechCrunch/CrunchGear meetup tomorrow (Monday, October 5) in Taipei at 7.30pm (open door at 7pm). We are holding the meetup with our partner and co-organizer Chili Consulting, a Taipei-based innovation strategy firm.
Every guest should have received the invitation by now, and please remember the venue changed (the schedule remains the same though). Thank you very much for the incredible interest in the meetup, which is sponsored by Taipei- and San Jose-based hardware maker IPEVO.
Please note you can’t register for this invitation-only event anymore – sorry.
Special thanks again to Chili Consulting for organizing this meetup. Make sure to follow the company’s Facebook page and blog for any last-minute updates (which are very unlikely to happen).
I’m looking forward to seeing over 100 TechCrunch readers and a handful of selected Taiwanese demo companies tomorrow.
Use the hashtag “#tctaipei” when twittering about this event (although I know Plurk is quite big in this country).

It’s not Tumblr but Plurk which is quite big over here but Twitter is also widely used, especially by geeks (and anyone who wants to communicate with the rest of the world).
… I should sleep more.
Pray that the typhoon will not come…
I’m so jealous. I hear they speak beautiful Mandarin in Taiwan. I wanna go.
they do speak wonderful mandarin, but they also speak some redneck mandarin down south hahah
台灣的國語最好聽！
and some of us speak poor Manderin which only magically appears when we are hungry!
Ho yeah I hope there won’t be any typhoon alter tmrw !
It is crazy to see someone dissing their own culture heritage just to please people at “the rest of the world” … you guys make me sick.
If you find it difficult to respect your own root then might as well leave the place.
