Isn’t That Place Kinda Small?

So now that we’ve topped 300 RSVPs, folks are starting to ask where we’re going to put everyone.
“Isn’t Spill the Wine a small restaurant?”
“Are we going to upset the patrons?”
“What have I gotten myself into?”
Don’t worry, folks, we already know that not everyone will come tromping in at once. First off, it’s a Tuesday and we know that tons of real estate offices around the Twin Cities will be having their weekly meetings that morning. Although we think RE BarCamp would be a great place to start your meeting, we can’t make you do that (but our coffee will taste better).
As regards the hundreds we expect to pop in and out at RE BarCamp, the event takes place on the SECOND FLOOR of Spill the Wine. There is a HUGE space up there for us to fill in and make noisy.
Check out this awesome shot of @ChelsieFoty (coffee cup and headache), @NobuHata (strike a pose), and @tboard (over-the-shoulder suave and laden with bags). Click any of the following images to enlarge.
They’ll probably all hate me (@gsax) for posting this photo, but they can take that up with me. I post it and the next two images for the greater good.
We have space, people. Yes, it might get noisy, but so what? Let’s be excited about what we’re doing. Let’s get into it, raise our voices, finish the day amped and ready for what’s next.
We have some quiet spots, too, in case you feel overwhelmed with joy.

Okay, this comment should work because I’m logged in. Let’s see…

Okay, it worked. Then I logged out and tried to comment. It didn’t work. I’ll test it out more later tonight. Sorry for the inconvenience BarCamp commenters. We’ll get to the bottom of this.

Deactivated all but two plugins. Is this going to help?

It worked! Okay, now to find the comment culprit!
Greg Sax on Fri, 5th Mar 2010 6:25 pm
I mean the plugin culprit!

Added the Facebook plugin back in. Still working?

Okay, testing now with Twetememe plugin back in the mix. Still working?

Interesting. Well, I’m shutting this test down for now. Please comment if you can find the time today, next week, within the month…

The place looks solid and not only because it is probably more than 100 years old. Nobu can be the bouncer so nobody gets in without that ticket since he has that pose down.
I’ll put a parking map together since this thing keeps getting bigger and bigger

Looks like you could do a very nice rendition of the “Risky Business” underwear dance slide on that floor.
