WebInno 14, In a Word, Amazing
Posted on September 11th, 2007 in Uncategorized | 1 Comment »
Last night I attended the latest (14th) Web Innovators Group meeting. It was the best one I’ve been to yet. The presentations were solid except for some Facebook glitches, the crowd large enough to warrant expanding the room size to accommodate all the new folks. For the first time, I talked to so many people that I didn’t get to see all the side dishes.
I ran into people I haven’t seen in years, (Hi Karen!) clients showed up and I met some very smart/connected/successful people I hope to do business with in the near future.
Afterwards a few of us went over to the Muddy Charles pub at MIT where there was some sort of Brazilian/Columbian networking party. Transitioning from talking with VC’s to watching cute 20-year-old Brazilians dance around wearing flags while we talked about mobile phone design made for an interesting evening.
It was fun to go downstairs from the Muddy to walk by WMBR. In 1993 I had a radio show there called ElectricSpace. We interviewed lots of amazing people that went on to become Internet legends, had a lot of fascinating late-night conversations and my roomate Michael proved that dance music can be Intelligent.
GregPC does his usual WebInno scorecard. Definitely worth a read if you want to lowdown on the presenters and side-dishes.
See you in November at Webinno 15.
