Next DM Meetup, Tuesday, March 8th 7-9pm

We're going to try the Breslin Bar again. If anyone can get there a wee bit early to try to snag a table, I was told there are tables "upstairs" and that would make meeting at the Breslin a nice time.

If that doesn't work out, and it's too crowded again, we can meet up in the Ace Hotel lobby.

(If you haven't been to the Ace Hotel yet, or tried Stumptown Coffee, my god DO get the coffee. Frickin' wonderful coffee experience. So smooth, tasty, and balanced.)

Tuesday, March 8th
7-9pm
Breslin Bar
28th St at Broadway, inside Ace Hotel

February meetup at Breslin was good

A low turnout didn't keep the night from being a good time at the Breslin. Our intrepid alums recommended that whoever arrives early, next time, should try to grab a table upstairs since The Breslin Bar is noisy and crowded. They ended up in the Ace Hotel lobby, which isn't a bad place to hang out since it's chic/urban/hipster/man/western style is appealing and the lower-lighting is more conducive to  swapping stories.

Anyway, the night was represented by these companies:
www.akoio.com
www.domestic-aesthetic.com
www.moma.org

See you all next month on Tuesday, March 8th!

(Sorry you don't get to vote if you want to have it on Tuesday, March 1st. I'll be away and I am NOT missing yet another one of these, since they're fun!)

February 8, next DM Meetup

Thanks for those of you who voted. All 6 of us, and an overwhelming majority picked next Tuesday.

See you next Tuesday, February 8th @ 7-9pm at the Breslin Bar
http://thebreslin.com/

Breslin is participating in Restaurant Week and so may be busier than usual next week. No worries, show up anyway. I hear the cocktails are really great!

Next DM Meetup, Tuesday, Feb 1 or 8?

Apologies for not having sent this out earlier, I've been ill much of the last two months and last week was pretty rough.

Since I know a number of you are out of the country or not well, let's vote on when our next Meetup is:
Tuesday, February 1st (in 2 days)
or
Tuesday, February 8th (next week)

As before it'll be at the Breslin Bar from 7-9pm.

Please vote!

Next Meetup: Tuesday, January 11 @ The Breslin Bar

Tuesday, January 11
7-9pm
The Breslin Bar

I've never been here so I can't recommend a place at the bar to meet up, but as only 6 of you voted I'll assume it's a low turnout and we'll figure it out :)

See you all there!

Another meetup, another happy time

Thanks to those of you who showed up this past Tuesday @ the Royalton Hotel bar.

Companies represented were:
www.avon.com
www.hotelvillavaradero.com
www.vivadm.com
www.dlapiper.com

Even though the turnouts are small, it seems that those who can make it are really glad they did. I'll keep this up until either no one shows up or people don't find it useful.

Next month, Tuesday, January 4th might be a little too close to New Years and many of you might not be ready on the 4th, we can schedule it for the 11th instead.

Please Vote (right-hand column) your next date preference: Jan 4 or Jan 11th.



Also, if anyone knows this spot, let me know if it's good for us. The description I read in Budget Travel magazine sounded about right:

Jimmy's Corner @ 140 W 44th St
http://nymag.com/listings/bar/jimmys_corner/

Or there's Kari's suggestion of The Breslin, I know for dinner it's a bit pricey but haven't been there for drinks. Anyone know if it's a good spot in terms of places to talk and mid-priced drinks, maybe some bar food?

Next DM Meet up: Tuesday Dec 7th 7-9pm

This coming Sunday is the DM alumni/students holiday party @ 6.30pm. I'm sure you all got the email.

This coming Tuesday night is the next DM meetup. Come with your questions, deals for networking, ideas for new businesses, feedback about trends and events, complain about something in business/design/world, or just come have a drink and say hi.

http://www.royaltonhotel.com/#/home/ Walk straight down that hallway photographed (the lady with the nice legs will probably not be standing there) and go toward the back where the balls of light hanging from the ceiling are. Those are the tables. The first person of our group to arrive, get a table.
