Okay, round three…. funny I did not mean to, but I think I may have saved the best for last.
Adam Darowski works with BatchBlue of Rhode Island. They make a customizable online contact manager for small businesses. I was impressed with his blog, darowski.com. I have barely had time to scratch the surface and already found some interesting stuff. Subscribed and going back through the archives.
Mike Darowski (Adam’s brother) is an XML geek working in educational field. I should have introduced him to Alfred Thompson another educational geek from New England. I think Mike might be the closest (from Warwick) of the people I met Thursday. I look forward to meeting again.
Liz Laneri encourages her clients to blog but does not have one yet. 
She makes up for it in twitter. She works at a PR agency called Horn Group. If you listen to Scoble, you might think that PR will never get blogging but Horn blows a hole in that theory.
Eric Mertzlufft is starting a website to train guys on how to hook-up their socially challenged buddies with the perfect match. “Because finding the perfect girl is easy. Getting her attention is difficult.” Good luck, Eric on this difficult but important task.
Well three days later, I have a list of most of the people I met. Now I have to send follow-up emails, read blogs, and explore websites. New England may have a little geekery in it after all.

Thanks for the props, Luke.
I just recently started Social-Sifter, http://www.social-sifter.com, a website focusing on social communication in all forms. My intent is to touch upon advertising, psychology, communication in many forms and drive at the ultimate underlying thread that runs through all communication.
I’m a big fan of helping guys succeed in their dating lives, but I haven’t taken the plunge to make a straight up dating advice website yet. Even in today’s modern world, people still can attach a kind of stigma towards that sort of thing, so I want my presentation strategy to be as solid as possible before launch.
In the meantime, I’m glad to have Social-Sifter up and running and I’m hoping to impact as many people as possible in a positive way.
Looks like Eric never got his site social sifter off the ground…
