Event Recap: TECHcocktail DC

April 25, 2008 · Print This Article

As you can clearly see form the picture to the left, the DC tech crowd was out in force last night.  The second Techcocktail DC was put on by Frank Gruber and Eric Olson and it was a blast.  I think Frank said there were 400 some odd people there.  There was a great vibe amongst all the guest and it is really starting to show that there are good things happening here in DC.

There is a great set of pics by Raoul Pop that you must check out.

Several local companies were set up showing off their products.

AwayFind - a product aimed at helping combat the email problem by letting your contacts get in touch with you via an online form.

iGala - a digital photo frame with a touchscreen interface that connects directly to Flickr and Gmail to stream photos to the frame like a slideshow.

Loladex - offers local recommendations from your trusted network of Facebook friends.

Odeo - launched a new beta verision which offers both search and personalized content (audio and video) recommendations.

Voxant - a free licensed content offering for publishers which offers a pageview based revenue share to anyone that embeds the content on a their site.

WhyGoSolo - a new social networking site aimed at helping you to create spontaneous new connections so, as its name implies, you won’t go solo any longer.

I want to thank Frank and Eric for a great event, and the great showing the local community had as well.  See you all at the next event.
