DigiWed's Blog (10)

It's been a while since I've posted a post. Sorry for the delay. Nothing really notable has happened. Last DigiWed, however, was a big hit. And this is only the beginning. As we head into the warmer season of spring, attendance at Ono Restaurant for Digital Wednesdays picks up and continues to provide a wide variety of impressive professionals. Aaron Kahlow (Founder) of the Online Marketing Summit Leslie Benhamin (Education and Events Marketing Director) and Karina Garcia (Digital and Database… Continue

Okay, so I didn't make it on time to last DigiWed because of a previous commitment. When I arrived, however at DigiWed around 8:30, I was very impressed by the crowd that remained. Must have been around 25-30 professionals still mingling and enjoying the complimentary bottles in the VIP area. George Campbell from interactive agency PerezBrownMedia had everyone in the corner cracking up, while Cris Graham, from competitive intelligent search engine Syntryx Executive Solutions, offered some of th… Continue

Last night's event hosted a fantastic turnout of industry professionals across the board. Back at Ono restaurant in the Gansevoort Hotel, our group of over 30 networkers enjoyed sultry music and flowing Grey Goose. Of those in attendance were a few lovely media buyers from Mediavest, a gorgeous and outgoing Biz Dev Director from Interactive Marketing Solutions, Veronica Ruelas, the extremely talented and beautiful comic artist/writer Andrea Grant (AKA - Minx www.copiousamounts.com), the online m… Continue

Unfortunately, I have not been able to attend the past two weeks considering I just started playing Dodgeball. Who can say no to that. It is ridiculously fun and I say that we bring DigiWed over and create a team!!! Who's with me? ;-) Continue

What a night... First I would like to give a thanks to MediaBistro for being so kind and helping fill in the lovely space Corio offers with plenty of top-notch freelancers. The turn out total for last night was around 100 people and over 60% were for MediaBistro. Some notable attendees for MediaBistro were three lovely recruiters from the Creative Circle (ask for Samantha, Tierny, or Sue), a top writer for Mad Magazine, and an entrepreneur f… Continue

It was a night for the regulars. The 20+ of us enjoyed a night of sultry music, subtle lighting, strong drinks, and 2 hilariously outgoing women. The night did not end there... we brought the crew to a newly discovered gem in Soho called Obivia, where the debauchery continued well into the night.

Stay tuned for more Digital Wednesdays.

The biggest turnout of the year. We had a representative from ClearChannel Taxi service bring a few lovely guests, an up and coming guitar player joined us for some drinks, and major players from all types of interactive companies. Notables are Mediapost (Jeremy Haft), eXelate (Elad Efraim), Dedicated Ad Networks (Scott Rothstein), and AlwaysOn (Erin Elton).

Next week also looks promising as well.... also, stay tuned for updated new and exciting features for Digital Wednesdays.

What a night... started off slow, but then at around 8pm, we were swarmed with guests. Totaling about 15 for the night (not bad), everyone enjoyed the complimentary bottle service and drink tickets. The best part of the night, however, started at around 8:30 with an announcement for everyone to take their seats. I've never seen anything like this before in my life. A real burlesque show... it kinda makes sense considering Corio is an actual burlesque house. Murray Hill, our host, is hilarious...… Continue
