EVENT: We're sponsoring, and our publisher is hosting, the NYC Photobloggers event tonight. Come over to the Apple Store to see a dazzling display of digital images and the faces behind the photos: Eliot Shepard, Jay Parkinson (yes, that Jay Parkinson) and a whole lot more will be on hand. There will also be a special presentation by Jen Bekman of 20x200, Hey Hot Shot, and the Jen Bekman Gallery and an after party at Merc Bar.

Thanks so much to everyone who came out for the Gothamist-sponsored New York City Photobloggers 6 event last night at the Apple Store! We had an overflow crowd come and listen to some of the best photobloggers in the city-- six great presentations on technical issues (camera choice, image processing, site-building) and subjects (street-photography, portraits, abstracts, architecture...) We also gave away a tons of prints, and a copy of Aperture, the new process-app from Apple (congrats, Red!) Afterwards, we all hit a packed Merc Bar for some free beer-- yum! If you missed it, come to the next one in May, or check out all that's going on in our photoblogger community at the NYCPB site.

The Paul Shambroom + Photobloggers event is tonight at 6:30 at the Apple Store in SoHo. It should be a lot of fun: Shambroom talking about his very cool Meetings series, and the photobloggers talking about shooting at the RNC protests. Afterwards, there is an open bar at the Merc Bar! So, if you like artists, politics, or free drinks, this might be the event for you! See you tonight!

As if the huge banner at the top of this page wasn't enough of a clue... Gothamist wants to make sure everyone comes out to the Apple Store tonight for NYC Photobloggers 2. The event is from 6-8PM, which will give you plenty of time to get home for the debate at 9PM.

Gothamist also would like to thank: Jason Calacanis, Nick Denton, and Jeff Jarvis for a spirited (though less punchy than wished for, to be honest) discussion about the future of publishing blogs; Anil Dash, Paul Ford, and Meg Hourihan for enlightening us about what goes into designing blog publishing tools (less nerdy than it sounds, for those who missed it); and Felix Salmon, Lockhart Steele, and Choire Sicha ( and Jen) for being good punchlines. Yay!
