Hey Everyone--

We're planning an impromtu "Meet Up" on Wednesday, requested by Julio Fernandez, via Twitter, who's coming to town to meet with his Bend client, Global Strategies. Julio's flying in from Florida, and it's his first visit to Bend. I figured this is a good excuse for a happy hour event!

Julio is an intersting guy, with experience as Global Marketing Manager at Oracle, and as an Evangelist at Google B2B Technology Council. He also won a Pulitzer while at the Miami Herald.

Specialties:
Metrics, metrics, metrics: Omniture web analytics, SiteCatalyst, Discover, A/B testing, multivariate analysis, behavioral targeting, site auditing, Google Analytics and more.

This will be a casual, no-host get together at the BlackSmith (great happy hour prices on food and drinks!)

Hope to see you there, and feel free to bring friends! Bloggers, Twits, Techies and even marketing people are welcome to attend!

--Julie

    Hey all you rsvp-ers, I know 5:00 is a bit early, but we had to reserve early so the Blacksmith would save us space. We can always move on for a burger at Deschutes Brewery at 7:00. Sign up for Twitter (www.twitter.com, I'm juliejulie), follow me, and we'll keep you posted!

Who attended?

  • 20 attendees
    •  Met, but didn't have a chance to talk to him. 
    •  Fun to meet new people, learn a bit about writing website copy for SEO, and connect with people who knew about Devil's Slide back in the Bay Area. Looking forward to the next gig. 
    •  Thanks for coming everyone! Wow, what a great turn out, especially for such short notice. I think Julio felt welcomed to town, and we had a great excuse to meet many new people. I'm so glad the Twitter community is alive and well in Bend, and adding a great mix to the BendTech group. Remember to check back regularly for more events, and to network with each other.
