Netparty

Friday March 20 was another big night out. It starts off at a "netparty." The invitation read "A Netparty is a "networking party" -- an opportunity for young professionals to network with each other on a business level (we encourage you to exchange business cards) and to interact with each other on a social level.  A Netparty also provides an opportunity to meet in person those who you might otherwise have only communicated with on "the Net."  Crain's New York Business has called networking parties "a genuinely original idea." Hmm. Sounds like every (Inter)Netparty I've been to! This one was at Speed (a Moroccan Lounge). By the time I got there (9:30ish) Donna Summer's "On the Radio" was ending, Diana Ross' "I'm coming out" was starting, the networking was pretty much over and the dancing was in full swing. Check my Upcoming events section for the next one!
