It was pretty much what I expected when you blend LA with tech: a pretty swanky lounge with a DJ spinning tunes, a special rockstar appearance and performance by Bono (well, a pseudo one), lots of media and video - 2 projectors constantly playing video clips and a couple different video cameras circling the venue interviewing people, free swag everywhere (my favorites were the mousepads from Userplane).”

The crowd was peppered with entrepreneurs like us, people associated with the industry, news writers like from Wired magazine and a few venture capitalists.”
