sfMacIndie 2008 is happening!

Chuck Soper — Thu, 05 Jun 2008 02:13:10 +0000

sfMacIndie Soirée is for independent developers and small companies (Mac, iPhone, web) to connect at the beginning of the WWDC week. All are welcome. Over 250 people have already signed up and more than half are company founders. Small companies are the foundation of innovation and creativity. Apple was once a small company.

Please take a moment to look at the sfMacIndie sponsor page. Thanks to the sponsors, there will be no cost to attend the sfMacIndie Soirée. This event would not be possible without their generosity.

If you would like to attend, please RSVP soon.

Trumer Pils is on tap for only $3!
MetroMint is free!

American and European brewmasters have come together to create the Trumer Brauerei Berkeley. With a passionate commitment to the Pilsner style, this international team has worked tirelessly to preserve every detail of the original Trumer Pils process of its centuries old brewery in Salzburg, Austria. Their efforts have paid off. Trumer Brauerei Berkeley combines the heritage and tradition of the old world with the new world’s dedication to craft brewing.

Metromint is refreshment, simplified. Just pure water and real mint — no sweeteners, no calories, no preservatives.

Metromint doesn’t just taste fresh, it feels fresh. Real mint stimulates the
brain to open your senses and send a cooling sensation from head to toe—
we call this The Chill Factor. Metromint satisfies your thirst, rejuvenates your
body, and revives your soul.

The unique, all natural benefits of Metromint now come in four vibrant
varieties: super cool Peppermint, subtle Spearmint, bright Lemonmint and
juicy Orangemint. Take a sip, and chill.

Questions:

Are you looking for something to do Sunday morning the day before WWDC?
Would you like to see scores of people running through Golden Gate Park in gorilla suits?
Do you enjoy banana juice?
Do your knuckles sometimes drag on the ground when you walk upright?

If you answered “yes” to any of the questions above then the Great Gorilla Run is the place for you!

sfMacISV is now sfMacIndie

Chuck Soper — Sat, 26 May 2007 06:15:08 +0000

Thanks to several developers that provided feedback, sfMacISV is now sfMacIndie. I think that “indie” better captures the spirit of an independent developer. ISV (Independent Software Vendor) sounds more business-like. I hope that you like the new name.

Welcome to sfMacISV!

This event is for independent developers and small companies to connect and network at the beginning of the WWDC week. All WWDC attendees are welcome.
