    I was really under the impression that Evernote, Dropbox, and PhoneGap were there to share some of their "startup" experiences, stories from the trenches. Instead each one just did a dog and pony show of their product... something everyone in the room was totally familiar with. The Dolphin girl seemed to think all we wanted to do was drink free beer. No, the meeting missed the mark. :(

    Great meeting F&F team Anna + Vladimir plus all the innovative speakers. The one on one time was epic. Nice to finally meet Mr. McClure, David Lee and Sachin Deshpande. Always nice to see Seth Hitchings from EN. Thank you!

    The guy sitting next to the moderator wore a distasteful and disrespectful t-shirt in front of a large audience. He thought that he was cool. I think that he is immature to say the least. Having a ton of money does not entitles a person to offend. There is no difference between donning a "Fucking social media ..." t-shirt from one saying: "Gays are sick."

    Great event but there were too many vendor presentations after the panel. Edith is an awesome speaker and panel lead.
