Who attended?

  • 394 attendees
    • “ Good networking and met very imformative people. Presentations were varied and interesting. ”
    • “ Scott did a good job at MC, but some of the presentations were weak. I wonder if voting is a good system, or if Scott's enlightened dictatorship of the past worked better. ”
    • Rich Hecker (+1 guest)
      “ scott, great job, pleasure meeting you ”
    • Tristan Louis (+1 guest)
      “ lots of hype but little content. ”
    • “ "What will the web be like in X years?" was a great question to ask presenters, but I think we would have gotten better answers if they had been given advance warning to prepare an answer. ”
    • “ some of the presentations were not up to normal tech meetup quality ”
    • “ want to see panel discussion at a future meetup. ”
    • “ overall the demo's were boring and uninspiring. ”
    • “ Would like to have had a chance to make my 30-second plug (was #6 in line). Will have to storm the stage next time, I guess ;) ”
    • Chip Welsh (+1 guest)
      “ need to qulaify better - mind petal was really weak.....also, at the end make sure the people who are anouncing things spell their web sites - i.e. was it rockettwo or raketu? i could not catch the MIT guys web address and have not seen his post anywhere...which is frustrating as his offer is of interest... ”
    • “ I was disappointed by this month's meet up. I thought the presenters didn't do very well and clearly could have benefited from a little guidence (audience expectations, tips on presenting). Honestly, even Scott seemed a little off and I don't think he communicated very clearly with the presenters or the audience (unplugging the first presenter's computer while he answered a question, asking the audience for what we could imagine the product being used for). Was it the rain? ”
    • “ Interesting hearing the presentations, but there wasn't much of a "meet" part of the meeting -- not much networking going on. ”
    • “ Presentations are great, but the social communial experience is lacking. ”
    • “ Scott, thanks for the great work. This week my company was looking to make an announcement on job openings. Rather than doing job posters/seekers as one-off announcements at the end of presentations, would you consider having all employers/seekers have a designated spot in the room to meet up after the presentations? It's a little tough to be that focused in a bar setting afterward, as not everyone goes for this reason. Seems to me this is one potentially huge benefit of the group - for employers and job seekers - it'd be a shame to miss out on matching up people and opportunities. Thanks. ”
