Mind Petals NYC Garden — We Killed it Again with our 6th Gathering
Last night we rocked it on the Lower East Side of Manhattan at the Gramstand Cafe with another Mind Petals Gathering. Great news, Mind Petals Organization is planned to become a non-profit organization which I announced last night in my intro. So I’m happy that we’ll be growing the organization in that direction.
We had just over 20 people come out last night. It was sweet! Ha, everyone always makes fun of me because I wait ’til the last minute to take the group shot, usually by that time a lot of people have left already. But oh well, it’s cool. It’s coo!
So what happened last night!? We spoke, we shared thoughts, played some chess, I learned more about photography from Amy, Melissa taught people all about patents, Avi gave a talk on “Naked Functionality,” I gave a discussion on “Samadhi,” Orian spoke about the world of RSS, Mike discussed his site “Swarrm.” And the list goes on. Etc… Etc… Basically, a bunch of people came together to be intellectually entertained and that’s exactly what happened.
Let me shut up and you can view a short video of some members introducing themselves.

Here’s some more pics.
As always, please contact us if you’re ever in the New York City area at nyc[@]mindpetals[.]org. The last Tuesday of every month at 7PM is when we gather. When we conduct our diabolical plans to take over the world!!! hahahah!!! No, for real, we welcome you with open arms. Come plant some seeds in our garden of inspiration.
I’ll be posting the discussions on the site within a few days, so stay posted.
Peace!

david, you should create a little profile summary, or page, that shows the people who showed up:
name
sex
age
location
company, or affiliation
gross sales
profit/loss
lol - that may be too personal for some, but you get the point.
