My sources are telling me the waiting list is 500 deep for the Twiistup event on Thursday. As is, the event is maybe even just a wittttle bit over booked. Needless to say, this is going to be *the* tech event of the summer. Here is whats going down:
- Steve Wiebe himself, yes the King of Kong guy is going for the record live.
- Some great new startups are showing off their goods.
- Finally, you can be like Steve Jobs and walk on water.
So if you are without tickets, don’t fret. Over at Docstoc we just happen to have 2 tickets available. Here is how you can get themfrom the docstoc blog.
