Check out the NY Tech Meetup - you can to present in front of a crowd of 400 tech enthusiasts; VCs, press and alike are in the crowd. Some even have received funding, as well some fairly big sites launched there (Delicious, Muxtape, Hype Machine & some others).
- aditya 17y agoI've been to NYTM and while Nate is doing a great job, I think it's still too big and represents more of the 'business entrepreneur' community than the 'engineer' community. The Hackers & Founders meetup that Dave (http://news.ycombinator.com/user?id=daveambrose http://news.ycombinator.com/user?id=daveambrose) runs is a lot more interesting but smaller and does not have demo's. Maybe I'm just out of it but the NY tech community feels a lot more fragmented than the one out on the west coast.
- daveambrose 17y agoThanks bringing this up. Demos are something I plan on including for next month (largely for timing/prep concerns) as we're getting close to our meetup this coming Thursday. I'll be sending out an open invite tomorrow. For those of you that'd like to present or share ideas as to the format for our first Demo H&F in October, please email me: daveambrose at gmail.com.
- joshu 17y agoDelicious didn't launch there. I did show it on the very first meetup though.
- paul9290 17y agooops well you showed it at the meetup. Pardon I should have said demoed rather then launched. Probably the others I mentioned did not launch there either. Though Muxtape did, pretty sure.
- jawngee 17y agoNY Tech Meetup is lame, it should be relabeled NY Marketing Meetup because that's all it really is.
