When John Perry Barlow speaks, people listen. And when he comes into town,
whichever town it may be, people come together. And converge they did at
Lot 61 on Thursday, July 20th, to meet and mingle and find out a bit about
www.toddstone.com. Amy Larocca, fashion writer for Vogue, was perched
outside as she was doing a story on Daisy (who works at Lot 61, in
addition to doing a lot of other things), for the Times magazine. Inside I
recognized Maya Draisin and David-Michel Davies of The Webby Awards. They
were in town with Tiffany Schlain and some other Webby-related folks for
the MacWorld expo (www.macworld.com) at the Javits Center. We got some
time to catch up and hang out, which was harder to do amidst the busy
Webby days! (http://www.webbyawards.com/). Joanna Fabozzi of Courtney
Pulitzer Creations was chatting it up with all the handsome dudes in the
room, including Dave Skaff of the Webbys and John McGann of JDM. Meanwhile
Catrina Gregory and Amy Brownstein were a dynamic duo in their black and
pink outfits.
David Schwartz of Boston-based NetZapper.com introduced himself. Andrew
Macaulay, with Forbes' AdSales department was entertaining clients earlier
that evening and was quite curious about our friends and the "industry."
He even bought us all Lemon Drop shots! Amidst the excellent mood-tunes
and clamoring cluster of friends eager to have their turn to say
"Hello."John
Barlow and I chatted about some interesting ways to collaborate (stay
tuned!). It was getting late, and this reporter needed her beauty rest!
