Schmoozing While Boozing in San Diego

1 Comment

In an effort to get all of our San Diego tech/web friends together I am organizing an event set for tomorrow, Thursday, October 9 at 5:30pm at WineSteals Hillcrest. The road has been rough for some of our fellow web peeps and I am (along with my company who is sponsoring (aka buying booze) the event, MindTouch) trying to get people together who are looking for jobs, looking to fill jobs, freelancers, designers, developers, web marketers, recruiters, etc. etc. This is a casual event to invite anybody who wants to further develop out their personal and professional networks within the San Diego tech market. I know times are tough out there right now so this is a time when we all HAVE to stick together - we cannot bend. If you have any (even a small amount of) time to stop by tomorrow night please make an effort to come out and support our industry, our friends, and our colleagues who need it most.

So far we have almost 40 people rsvp’d - which for such short notice is an AMAZING response! Come on San Diego (and Southern California!!) and get our industry moving & shaking again!!

Please RSVP here for the event. If you have any additional questions you can refer to my blog post on the MindTouch blog, dm me @sarahmcarr or email me directly sarahc (at) mindtouch (dot) com. Cheers and MANY, MANY thanks to our wonderful community!!

Introducing BITCH (p.s. It’s a wine!)

While traveling throughout Southern California over Labor Day, we stopped at this local country market in Pismo Beach where I found BITCH. No no, not Paris Hilton - a wine called BITCH (2007). A South Australia Grenache wine imported by The Grateful Palate. I couldn’t resist the chance to buy it (it’s a best seller in this market and yet no reviews on the TASTE of the wine) and share it here. If I ever open and drink it I will definitely let you guys know how it tastes ;-)
