MashMeet Party Recap
Last night down at the NYC Pourhouse bar was the 2nd MashMeet combined with the Web2.0/Social Networking Meetup. I've got to say, I had a good time. The place was packed - probably too packed - but I was able to camp out in a small nook with a bunch of friends and met a whole lot of new people as well. I was able to convert 112 people from loyal Mashable readers to loyal CN readers so I consider it a good night.
Head Masher Pete Cashmore was unable to make it as he was receiving his award from Forbes as a top web celeb. (get well soon Pete!)
The evening's festivities were chaperoned by Mashable's Adam Hirsch and Adam Ostrow along with Brett "I need a date" Petersel. In all seriousness, it was a lot of fun and it seemed everyone else had fun as well. For Your Imagination was shooting video as well - looking forward to seeing the results.
I got a chance to meet two of Digg's power users, a variety of followers of my twitter feed, VentureBeat's NYC reporter (I forgot her name again and can't find her on the site!) and even Nicholas Carlson from Valleywag. The weirdest thing is when someone comes up to you and says, "I follow your Twitter" - wtf is this world coming to!
Here are some photos from the evening (view all photos):

Two Top Diggers - identity concealed to protect them
hehe, I don't mind my identity being revealed. ;)
Hah, I used the "I follow your Twitter" line with someone. Thanks for coming Allen, though, somehow I managed not to bump into you. We should meet up sometime - I'm in NY til next Friday.
yea you hid from me cuz you knew I was going to offer you $2 million signing bonus to join cn!
lol that was probably me! and seriously..wtf! :)
Alan - Thanks for coming last night! I'm glad you were able to share a good laugh with me about the "date" thing!
Everyone in my team enjoyed the party and had a wonderful time! CN is on my daily read list now!
Welcome to the family Nataliya :)
It was a pleasure meeting you and I'm quite upset that you ran out of buttons before I got one!
You owe me one!
email me your address and I will ship you a button :)
Totally "borrowing" your Flickr photo set and reposting in the appropriate areas! Thanks in advance!
I never have that problem of people coming up to me and saying they follow my twitter. I'm the only one in a 75 mile radius of my house that uses Twitter, according to some of the Twitter geo-sorters I've used. :)
