I'd say it went very well. About 40-50 people showed up. We had a lot more RSVPs than that, but that was before we announced it would be in the morning instead of the afternoon. People started trickling in right at 9:30. Everyone mingled from 9:30 to 11:15, and Erin and I were able to talk to most people one-on-one and in small groups during that time. Then Erin and I did about 20 minutes of Q&A at the end.
This was a very nice group size for the room. It would have been a lot more challenging with 80-100 people.
I'll probably do a blog entry with photos next week (after we get back to Vegas). One person also took some video, so maybe he'll post it on YouTube.
Erin and I had an awesome time in NYC. For me the highlight was spending time with local friends here and getting to see the city through their eyes -- and of course this morning's meet-up. I also found it fun to figure out the subways, which we probably rode about 20 times.
