Party Post Coming Soon
I know many of you are eager to see the account of the party scene last night. Rest assured, Steve is working on it. It may be later this afternoon, though, as he looks like the gum Death chewed last night.
Meanwhile, I’ll tide you over with a few words about a dinner last night among members of the secret society of the 100 Club, sponsored by BlueStreak. About a dozen or so folks, whose collective black hand directs everything in Internet marketing that matters, met last night to decide who would be allowed to succeed on the Internet (no, not really). Actual though conversation about industry trends and history took place, including reminiscing about historic characters such as Paddington Hayden (drove Softbank Interactive into the ground) and Mark Welch (eccentric SF Bay real estate lawyer who dominated discussion on Online Ads Discussion List for a year or two circa 1997), remembering Dennis Rodman’s keynote (on motorcycle) at Michael Tchong’s short-lived but unforgettable Web Attack conference, as well as debates about whether Google is good or evil, and so on.
Then the heavy drinking began…
(Looking at Steve now, I think you might check back Wednesday for his party post.)
