Awesome Blogger party tonight at the Thirsty Bear. Awesome, just awesome.

Here are some pictures I took. No time for captions tonight... will go back and add those in the hours ahead.... but for now, take a quick look...

(that's right, Jonathan Schwartz at the blogger party... live and in person... does that mean he's a blogger. well yes it does!)

The second pic of myself and Sam Pullara trying to explain something to a beatroot red Gaving King is very, very amusing. Good shot!

this is me with Cameron Purdy, president, Tangosol. At one point during the course of the evening I saw him and Jonathan talking shop. Tried to eaves drop so i could tell you what they said but at the time was talking to a techno celeb, live and in person -- Tim Bray -- and frankly that was a little more important to me.

 

And speaking of Tim Bray -- that's him! Techno Celeb. The A list of Internet superstars. And my close personal friend.

Here's me awarding Friday Free Stuff prize to  Luke Hutteman, who by the is the author of  the SharpReader RSS Aggregator. I never did manage to find  Klaasjan Tukker to award  him his prize for Friday Free Stuff. (You'll recall we had multiple winners last week). Klaasjan, you gotta tell me where I can find you so that I can hand-off your prize.

more bloggers, chatting it up. didn't get names on this one.

here's me with Dr. Barry Burd, Drew University professor of mathematics and computer science and celebrated author.

 

and here's me with Gerald Beuchelt -- the train guy!!

at this point the digital camera said "disk full." but more pics coming to me via email.

i hope.

i've got my fingers crossed on that one, making it difficult for me to type.

Great ! Next time (better time ?) why not to select a couple of bloggers from the other side of the world and invite them ? I suggest also to deploy a big banner "BLOGS.SUN.COM" at the F1 Grand Prix in France next week-end and post the fotolog of all customers we will meet there :-)
