It's a rainy day at Dogpatch Labs today, but the Facebook Connect meetup preparations is going at full force!  I'll post more pictures tonight after the event.

Get more details about Dogpatch Labs here, and follow them on Twitter here.

Did I mention it's raining pretty hard?  It's getting in!

Update:

Amazingly enough, PG&E fails at the worst possible time, a few minutes before the event was to start!  PG&E had some kind of major equipment damage and there was no ETA for the lights to come back on.  We were all huddled around candlelight:

But of course, Dogpatch Labs SF is run by the awesome Ryan Spoon and Polaris Ventures, who pulled through big time and got us over to the Four Season's Hotel.  With us came the mountains of pizza and drinks.  Disaster averted!  On with the show.

Huge props to the presenters, Ryan Spoon, Mike Hirshland, all the Polaris guys, etc. for making this event awesome.  Definitely an enjoyable session and also great to see the Facebook Connect group come out to hear how the companies are using their product.  I'll now complain a bit less about the Facebook API Wiki now that I've met the Facebook crew.  ;)
