Three weeks later: A final post

It's been three weeks since we set up shop in the TC50 DemoPit at the San Francisco Design Center, and we're finally ready to wrap up our blogging. A short summary of the things we loved below:

For presenters, Nell favored Birdpost and Swype. Birdpost, a site for bird-watchers to map their sightings and share photos, lives up to her belief in all things clean, specific and simple. Swype, a new text input technology, is just plain cool. David, meanwhile, liked Fotonauts and GoodGuide. Fotonauts provides its users with a smart, creative, and sophisticated way to organize and share photos, while GoodGuide makes it actually possible to be a knowledgeable buyer without spending all your time trying to acquire that knowledge.

It's tough to choose favorites among our DemoPit friends -- we loved so many whether they pertained to music, politics, or provided us with some new search or e-mail solutions! We'll cite a couple here: Vlytics, Grooveshark, and BriteClick all stood out from the pack.

Overall, it was a fantastic experience. We met smart, friendly, fun people, collected some leads for potential partnerships, and even made some money. We loved showing off the site and hearing all the fantastic feedback, though we both wish we could have spent just as much time wandering the aisles, hearing the presentations, and chatting with the attendees. Maybe next time :)
