Thanks to everyone that was involved in organising the event, it was our first experience at such an event and we can't be thankful enough for people like Ben Ranck, Bart, Ryan and all the organisers that put the hours in to make it all happen.
Thanks to Ben and Bart for pushing us out of our comfort zone and getting us in front of people and, many thanks to all others who put up with our impromptu elevator pitch (thanks Bart!). Had we not come to such an event, we would have missed out on learning from everyone there and I feel a lot of people miss the opportunity. Both Herbert and I are looking forward to the next meet-up, perhaps drinks at the Grace hotel one Friday night? P.S. We were the two guys that are working on the personal finance idea... 4sq meets mint.com (we haven't got a name yet - and are open to suggestions!).
