Club DeVille was hopping at the Gnomedex, Seesmic, Ping.fm, BlogHer party where I ran into Sean McCullough of Ping.fm and the infamous serial entrepreneur Loic Le Meur of Seesmic fame. Loic talks about his love for running and his favorite moments at SXSW, and Sean tells us about Ping.fm. A huge thanks to Ponzi Pirillo for putting the party together. It was a great time! I even stole a couple of minutes of fame on Chris Pirillo live!

Irina and Eddie of GETV showed up in their TechCab for a third year in a row armed with live streaming technologies. Their task? Trade cab rides for confessions. I was fortunate enough to catch a cab ride with Steve Garfield of SteveGarfield.com and my new pal Chris. Steve was a bit reluctant at first, unable to think of ANYTHING that might qualify as a confession or a secret; but with her super ability to drag a confession out of anyone, Irina got Steve to fess up and spill the digital beans.

The gloves came off (ok, amongst other things) at Emo’s for the Pasties and Pastries Party. We’ll let the video speak for itself. Baudy and burlesque performers took the stage and wow’d us all with their moves, grooves, and tassles.

One of my favorite parties every year, Dorkbot, got under way and got out the Tesla coil. Mr. Tesla, you never expected what the freaks and geeks of Dorkbot would do with your technology did you? Star Wars fans will appreciate this. A lot.
