I am putting together another domain investor get together in New York, which will be held on Tuesday, December 9, 2008. The location is still TBD, but it is going to be either a cash bar or a small cover charge to reserve a room at a bar/restaurant. It will probably be somewhere on the Upper West Side (figure somewhere between 60 – 86th St between Central Park West and Amsterdam) because I can more easily meet with managers to get the best deal depending on the turnout.
There were around 30 people at the last New York get together I helped organize, so it should be a well-attended event. If you think/know you can make it, please drop me a note or leave a comment so I can plan accordingly. It’s much easier holding this event at a bar in a private room because it’s tough to communicate at a large dinner.
I will post more details once this is confirmed.
Count me in, Elliot. I really enjoyed the first ones you put together and will definitely attend this one. See you then. Thanks for organizing it.
Count me in ES. Maybe we can get Rick or Howard to pay to attend, sponsor it, and speak at the event.

Great idea. Wish you were doing it in LA though!

Well I just started domaining, never been to one of these. What goes on?
***UPDATED BY ELLIOT***
Socializing and networking. Low key and relaxed.
BTW, I hear they installed plexiglass on the railings at Bobst… crazy
If you send a driver for me, put me up in a hotel for a night and then drive me back (5000 miles round trip), I promise to say something profound while I’m there. No… well okay then, I wish you luck with event without me 😉
i might be out of town that week – try st james gate pub (stjamesgatenyc.com) – haven’t been there but heard it’s a good place – might be worth checking out.
I should be able to make it. Depends on time, but should at least to make to part of it. I like bar idea more as well.
As someone who organizes this kind of events often, there shouldn’t be cover since you will be bringing in 20 something people, and that’s good drink $$ for the bar. Especially on Tuesday night.

It would be cover and all you can drink or cash bar. I am leaning towards cash bar with happy hour discounts.
cash bar and happy hour does sounds great.
Elliot,
Count me in. I would love to network. See u then…..
I enjoyed the last one Elliot but as I live in Ireland these days I won’t be in the USA on the 9th. I’ll be tipping back pints in Dublin instead. So if you or anyone ever wants to do an event in Dublin let me know! Otherwise I hope to be in NYC another time when you do it again.
Elliot, if you need any assistance, let me know. I’m looking forward to it and would be glad to pitch in.
Thanks, Elliot. The team at SnapDragon is looking forward to attending.
I’m down
Will likely be there.
I’m interested in coming too. It depends on the time as I would have to take a train into the city after work. Please email me any details.
Elliot,
Count me in. I enjoyed the last one, met some interesting domainers and learned some helpful tips. Thanks for organizing this.
I’m in Mr. Silver. Looking forward to it!
: )
I’ll be there – the last one was a blast. Look forward to seeing everyone.
