One girl, two parties
Tonight I had two parties to attend on Qik’s behalf, each thrown by one of our fantastic partners. At each party, I met great people and was able to chill out a bit. Work can be work, but it’s often a lot of fun, too.
First up was the Nokia N97 launch party at the legendary Marquee. Qik is pre-loaded on the N97 and just announced a really important milestone in our partnership with Nokia, as well as being a featured app in the Ovi Store. (All photos are here, click thumbnails for full-sized photos.):
Just around the corner was a party thrown by Ning (did you know that, with Qik’s Ning integration, members of your Ning social network can Qik straight to your Ning site?). All pictures from #ningnyc are here, click thumbnails for full-sized shots.

Me with Ning co-founder + CEO Gina Bianchini - one of my tech and business heroines.

Me with Sandi Bachom - what a life she lives!


Best view from a party EVER
Qik is fortunate to have such fantastic partners, and I’m glad they throw parties as well as they build products and services!

Hi Jackie, I’m Renny from Norway.
I came to your blog from today’s Qik newsletter and followed the link to ‘Quik on Tweetdekk’ where I clicked the screen shot and came to your Flickr account. From your profile there, I found your blog.
I’m experimenting with Qik on my Nokia N82. It was fast and very easy to download and getting started! Working in The Norwegian Computer Society, I sometimes use it when we have work groups or mini seminar and it’s interesting to see how easy it is to broadcast with just a mobile phone and a wifi connection - and then for free.
Great to see you’re having success with Nokia - I have had Nokia phones for more than 15 years and I guess my next one will be a N97.
Hope we can keep in touch as I can see I have a lot to learn from you about officiant use of Qik.
Btw: I’ve added you as a contact on Flickr and if you like to find more about me, just Google me on RennyBA
Thanks for leaving a comment, Renny. So glad you are enjoying Qik and how we work with Nokia! I highly recommend the N97; it’s an incredible device that is winning raves from all corners. Battery lasts for ages, too! :)
