spending time with people you really like is awesome

The other night I was at Bedford Academy for dinner & drinks with some of my fav friends to celebrate Renee‘s visit from SF. Haven’t seen Renee since she moved and it was so nice to see her in IRL. WE MISS YOU RENEE! ♥

We felt it was a good idea for her to make a speech. It went something like this…

Tried to take some pano shots of the crew but I’ve not mastered shooting people this way. I’m learrrrrrning still.

Most of us in this group met early 2009 through events like Twestival, GenYTO, CanLit and patio Tweetups. It’s amazing to see how everyone has evolved over the last few years. We’re a passionate group of young people working with new technology in mobile, social and web.  When we started GenYTO this was our mission, to unite the “wired, creative and ambitious young people in the in the Toronto startup, marketing, PR and tech community.”

This is me on My City Lives around this time last year talking about how my friends in the Toronto tech community have inspired me.

 

You might recognize a few of these awesome people 😉

I reckon it’s time to plan GenYTO Summer 2011. Ideas welcome. LMK.
