CooBric Coworking Launch Party Review

SoUrban has been running up and down the NYC tech scene lately. Yesterday, I attended the CooBric Coworking launch.

What is Coobric and Coworking?

From the CooperBricolage site...

"cooperBricolage is a private cafe space for entrepreneurs, interactive designers, programmers and technologists leveraging the concept of the “Inventors Institute” originated in the late 1870s by inventor Peter Cooper.

cooperBricolage is where you can use “free” wifi and get a coffee and/or sandwich for a small entry fee. People in the cafe workspace are working to build businesses, artistic collaboration or simply programming for a new startup. We are trying to minimize the normal cafe traffic that comes from being in Starbucks or some other Internet cafes."

Who did I meet?

I met Lilly Gold, the founder of Intuwin, a photo/scratch-off website. That's sounds really weird so I visited the site to make my own scratch-off, here it is:

Have you heard about Brett Favre's dolphin-fighting ring in his pool, where dolphins wear spears attached to their foreheads? Adam Varga, the COO at NewsGroper.com, is the man responsible for this and I had the pleasure to meet him yesterday. NewsGrouper is a network of parody celebrity blogs.
