Ignighter Blog

It Used to be a Watermelon, Now it’s more like a Summer Squash

Tomorrow (Tuesday December 4th) Ignighter will be presenting at the NY Tech Meetup. This will be the first public demonstration of Ignighter and therefore the first time that any of us will have had tomatoes thrown at our heads.

But seriously folks we’re pretty excited about the opportunity to present to about 500 of our fellow NY Tech nerds and web entrepreneurs. The NY Tech Meetup is a great place for us to premiere our app. And we couldn’t ask for a cooler venue than the IAC building and the world’s largest HD video wall.

Check out the mention in Silicon Alley Insider, one of the top NY Tech/Digital blogs. I’d invite all of our faithful blog readers to come and support us, but unfortunately I’m pretty sure the event is full. If you’d like, you could show up anyway, and line up on the West Side Highway like you’re waiting for Spice Girls tickets.

While preparing for the demo we did come across some recaps and anonymous commentors of previous NY Tech Meetup demos. They are unkind to say the least. One that scared me the most said something along the lines of, “maybe we would’ve enjoyed the demo a little more if the presenter wasn’t blocking the screen with his huge head”. If you know me (or rather if you’ve seen me), you can probably imagine that one stung more than others. In fact, I’ve spent the day chewing celery and practicing the ancient Peruvian tradition of Cranial Binding in an attempt to tone up and slim down my big noggin.

The one good thing about the negative comments is that unlike hecklers at a comedy show, Tech hecklers - Techlers - wait until they’re home and in the safe, warm, anonymous confines afforded by the top bunk of their Batman and Robin bed.

We’ll be sure to let you all know how it goes…

On another note, if you have a couple minutes please take our Online Dating Survey, it’s quick and completely anonymous. Thank You!
