Ray ThomasWell these are my honest thoughts... I been to a few others and loved them. This was the first one that seemed to drag a little. I think the reason why was because it was already one of the longest with the most presenters but a few were of things that were pretty dull compared to the others. Now I'm not saying everything has to be a fun site, I did find the cloud computing solution to be cool since I'm recruiting in that space but it definitely did drain me a little. Maybe next time just have 1 topic that seems to be dull in a shorter venue? If you have a longer one, make sure that most of the presentations are lively so people wont walk out like they did in this one.

Niles BrooksThis event was great. Audience feedback and participation clearly indicated, with the exception of the differentiatio
n-less 10gen demo, that people not only "got it" but many of them *want it*. I'm looking forward to some vision next month - something George Orwell meets Obama ~?~ (read: bold with balance). Surprise me!

Vas KGreat variety of presentations, very well run and organized (space, time management, A/V).
Looking forward to seeing the organization evolve to the next level.
-
Murali ChigurupatiIt was my first. I really enjoyed it. The transitions between demos was not ideal: the next demo always took over the display before the current demo was done answering questions.
-
Matthew CaldecuttMoved at a brisk pace with a little bit too much of the meetup's history at the tail end.
-
James DThis month the best part of the Meetup for me was chatting with 2-3 entrepreneurs after the main agenda. Regarding the 400 limit on RSVPs, I think I got lucky by checking email at the right time, otherwise I would have missed out on RSVPing.
-
Jessica GrossThe organizer spoke for an incredibly long time. That brought the meetup from great to good.
-
IsraelToo many presenters. Ideas were nice, but none seem to be a killer. Also, looks like the announcements after the demos aren't there anymore; they used to be useful.
-
peter powellAbsolutely Inspiring and educational! The energy level in the room and from all your presenters was great! It gave me such energy to go on with my own work!
-
Greg SchwanLoved it. Jam-packed with presos, and some very neat stuff. I liked Cookstr, the collaborative composition tool, and the...not sure...environmental thing built on Google Maps (reminded me of ZoomProspector).
-
Tao TaoIt is very messy, hard to find potential business partner, very very inefficient, because you do not know who is the right person to talk to, it is more like a party. But we do not need a big party. There is no different 400 people attending or 1000 people attending? How many you can talk in 1-2 hours? We need to pin-point the potential business cooperation. There is no such mechanism with this meetup.
