    Always there for Jeff's meetups and conferences. Going to be there a little late; traveling up from Philly as usual.

    I wish I could have gone to the other ones in London and LA! But am happy you are producing a followup event. Looking forward to meeting even more fellow Social Media and Twitter advocates.

    I really enjoyed #140conf and met a lot of great people + learned a ton about new techniques/apps and realized there are people crazier than me out there (smile) see you Wednesday!

    Looking forward to catching up with everyone in NYC on Sep 16th.

Who attended?

  • 257 attendees
    • Farrah (+1 guest)
      “ I thought it was a great program with wonderful speakers/presenters. All information made sense and I loved that they were only allotted 10 minutes to speak so it didn't run too long. Hopefully the next one will start closer to on time - I had to skip out early and missed the final speaker. ”
    • “ Great talks and networking. Loved the talk by @isfan and the Roger Smith Hotel. Great meeting Jeff too! ”
    • Stuart Tracte (+2 guests)
      “ A great start to establishing a NYC 140Conf community. Hearing great content from our peer group is always educational, entertaining, and just plain fun! ”
    • “ This was my first #140conf meetup, and I had a great time. The speakers shared relevant, inspiring stories that were as enjoyable as they were insightful. I think what I dug most of all was Jeff's introduction speech. What a smart guy. Really on point. Also, it was super smart and resourceful to have DiGorno's "cater" the event with samples of their new pizza-- it gave us something for our bellies and gave them a clever "excuse" to dive into social media marketing and consumer feedback. I'll definitely attend #140conf meet ups in the future, especially if they're in NYC. ”
    • Chip Bunker (+1 guest)
      “ I liked the "cast of characters". Perhaps a bit too much "Oprah" from some of the presenters but the ability to meet and greet others who are thinking about this space is well worth the time invested. ”
    • “ Entertaining; educational; well worth attending! ”
    • E.B. Moss (+1 guest)
      “ Actually got more out of this from some of Jeff and early speaker's comments than a PAID event I attended in the AM ”
    • “ Jeff knows how to assemble and run a meeting. And the networking afterward was as good as it gets. ”
    • “ GOOD number of people, good number of speakers (not too many, and the short 10minute format was perfect, plus time to talk to people afterwards). ”
    • Ann Sachs (+1 guest)
      “ It was small enough to have actual conversations with the people speaking and the people attending. The little slices of DiGiorno Pizza made a big difference, because people were hungry. ”
    • “ Good and informative. ”
    • “ Nice to see other people excited and passionate about social media. But would have loved to see some more metrics & business insight. ”
    • “ It was good. Well done! ”
