Facebook Developers Meetup NYC (part 1)- Dave Morin

Last night Dave Morin, Senior Platform Manager at Facebook, beamed in from WWDC to kick off the first Facebook Developer Meetup in NYC

I will try to post the rest of the videos some time later, so stay tuned for Q&A with Mark Zuckerberg.

On behalf of all attendees I would like to thank Amit Gupta for coordinating the event and Kristian Hansen (of Cresa Partners) for providing the space.


UPDATE: I would also like thank Dave Morin, Mark Zuckerberg, Meagan Marks, Kevin Colleran, Brandee Barker, and all the other Facebook folks that helped out.

Who is Michael Galpert?

Yesterday, I got together with Amit Gupta of Photojojo and we chatted a bit about the fun stuff that can be done with photos and how we are both stoked about going to Vegas next week.

Amit also started a videoblog called 30 seconds with, where he asks "cool" ppl he meets to say something for 30 seconds.

Here are my 30 seconds of fame:

And here are the outtakes:

I am really glad Amit posted them. I was going to blog about it later in the week but I have delayed too many posts in the past to let this one go by...

After we went our separate ways I couldn't get over the fact that it took me 5 tries to explain who I was and what I do. We have been working on our mission statement and to date we have come up with "enabling creative distribution". Now its just a matter of living it.

I really liked Amit's 30secondswith idea that I decided to give it a try...
