Here's what's on tap for the SF New Tech family this month ...
We've got our regular, monthly, free Belly Up happy hour this week. Come on down to the Mars Bar for a cocktail or two this Wednesday night. No cover charge ... just good people having a good time, talking tech. RSVP here: http://oct08bellyup-sfnt.eventbrite.com/

Thursday night is Startonomics! Brought to us by our friends at Dealmaker Media, and in partnership with 500-hat wearing Dave McClure, Startonomics is a full day workshop on October 2, 2008 about how to break down and leverage the metrics of success for your startup. They don't teach you this shit at school -- so you'd really be well-served to file this one under "important event not to miss". SF New Tech peeps will receive a nice discount: the first 20 members to register using the discount code "SFMU08" will receive $100 bucks off the regular ticket price. More info and registration @ http://startonomics.com/

In other news: I was in NYC for the Web 2.0 expo and promised them I'd blog about the event. Unfortunately, I was glued to my laptop on work detail the entire time and only made it to one session -- Jonah Peretti's secrets to contagious media and social networking. The take-away: tap the "Bored at Work" network and show off your mullet (Business up front, party in the back!) to ignite your viral campaign. More info from Jonah is here: http://www.contagiousmedia.org
See you soon!
