Ask YC: Anyone in Chicago going to TechCocktail Tonight?
I remember jdavid said he was coming down from Milwaukee. Other Chicago people (Shooter, speby, there, rrival, bmaier, cstejerean)? Does anyone want to meetup? I don't know the venue so I can't recommend a good way to meetup.
Venue: John Barleycorn Wrigleyville (Map)
Time: 6:30pm -9pm
Date: Thursday, February 21, 2008
Cost: FREE
RSVP Info at: http://techcocktail.com/blog/2008/01/22/tech-cocktail-chicago-7/
- bmaier 19y agoYes, I'll be there, but unfortunately I don't know the venue either. I believe its upstairs at Barleycorn. Anyone else going?
- rrival 19y agoI'll be there wearing a Mashable schwag shirt (http://tinyurl.com/2xs7c2 http://tinyurl.com/2xs7c2), black jacket. I look like this guy: http://tinyurl.com/yw4bet http://tinyurl.com/yw4bet It's upstairs. There's a circular bar in the middle, a wall of windows on the east wall. The elevated area along that wall is probably the easiest place to meet as there's just one way to get there. See you guys there!
- picnichouse 19y agoI think a couple of our guys (thepoint.com) are going. Please say hello! We look like this: http://www.bandrew.com/rampage/ http://www.bandrew.com/rampage/
- bmaier 19y agoOn a completely tangential note, I would like to state for the record that CakePie is one of the greatest things I have seen.
- jdavid 19y agohey, great job on that funding round.
- pchristensen 19y agoThat...is the COOLEST picture ever! I'll just follow the National Guard to find you guys.
- jdavid 19y agoSocial Helix(all 4 of us) will be there. We will be demoing and talking hopefully with all of you. Then tomorrow Jon and I fly out to SF for the google hackethon.
- lylia 19y agoI will tell the two other startup guys I'm working with about this. We were planning to meet tonight to work on stuff, but this may be a better thing. Edit: Apparently they ran out of space. One of the guys said he'd been invited. We'll go to the next one.
- rrival 19y agoI'd be curious to see if they really care -that- much - it seemed pretty open last time I was there. Walking in like you know what you're doing might work, and if the last one is any indication, people tend to stay on after the event ends at 9 (we closed it down last time).
- bmaier 19y agoIt is a free event, apparently the registration they do is to get an accurate head count. Just show up.
- pchristensen 19y agoShould we go with rrival's elevated platform on the east wall? I would recommend the Social Helix space but I wouldn't want to hog their demo room. I look like this: http://www.pchristensen.com/blog/articles/your-code-is-suboptimal/ http://www.pchristensen.com/blog/articles/your-code-is-subop... except without the sunglasses and hat.
- JaredRad 19y agoWe'll be there. Look for the 3 most dashingly handsome guys in the whole bar. That's us.
- pchristensen 19y agoI believe you're referring to me, myself, and I :)
- thomasswift 19y agodidn't rsvp in time, make sure you talk to the suits, they've got the money.
- programnature 19y agoI want to go, will they just let you in without rsvp?
