Sponsor Info:
Roommate Happy Hour is a simple and unique way to find your next roommate.
Whether you have a room to rent, are looking for a room, or want to meet someone and find your ideal apartment together, Roommate Happy Hour is the answer for you. Look no further...Roommate Happy Hour is quick and easy...just the way it should be.
Conceived by the Founder John Jourden's own frustrating roommate search in Nov 2009 and finally born in the wee hours of Sep 2010 - after many difficult hours of labor complications, Roommate Happy Hour is the fruitful union of "Common Sense" and "There Has To Be a Better Way".
I discovered that the literally "168" emails sent to people on the "Dead List", the numerous memberships in online roommate finding/matching/searching sites, and the endless waste of resources used to track down someone who could put up with me, just didn't get it done. So in the true spirit of "Making Things Happen", I decided to dispense with the trivialities and Roommate Happy Hour was born!
Roommate Happy Hour is a forum for real people looking for a roommate. Come find that ever-elusive yet all-important chemistry face-to-face in a relaxed social environment. No Pressure. No Gimmicks. Just real people like you looking for a roommate.
What are you waiting for? Get out to a local joint for a Roommate Happy Hour and find your next roommate today!

C.S. HsiaSome of the demos were quite frankly terrible, and a waste of the VC panel and other participant's time. If people weren't going to spend time preparing, they don't deserve stage time. Luckily, S2H and Foodang delivered!
-
Al VazquezThere was no time for socializing at the end of the event while we were being aggressively pushed out of the venue. The end of the event is when people have gotten to see the speakers' personalities and have a chance to actually interact with their ideas. We need a little freedom at the end.

HienSome of the presentations were not well-prepared:
twisplays, appbrick were particularly grueling.

Nick HallThe format was limited in audience participation, I think there should have been better managed time for questions, plus there was a lack of VC interaction with the crowd.
