Dean RossVisual Goodness Inc.+1 guestAnother great event. Bringing in the VC's was very cool. I noted that one VC implied he was the "Simon Cowell" character. Yet neither of the other two implied being the "Paula Abdul" character despite their glowing endorsements of all presenters.

Tom CramerFreelanceI liked the VC forum at the end, but would encourage them to be more honest. The first two seemed a little overly polite.

Aura NovembreThe organizer injected a dose of humor and novelty by creating an American Idol style event. It worked well for the presentations.
He does such a nice job of keeping things moving along. Excellent work!

Gal SivanFreelanceI love how it's run! VC panel was perfect - succinct and well-thought. One thing, the networking in the end works better if it's in the same room, because the "vibe" is kept. Moreover, many people chose not to come to the bar and head out, so I believe more would have stayed if it were announced that networking will take place in the same room.

Got stuck at work so I watched it online -- great option, I appreciate that. Nice job webcasting so that we could see the screen clearly.

sam kleinmanit was very nice but i didnt think there was a real opportunity for networking the bar at the hilton is more suitable to singles meetings or businessmen with suits i think that an outside place more funky and more in the spirit of newness would have been nicer it was not very clear who was what as far as the speakers not trying to Kvetch too much but this is what i think in any event, it was cool
