Martin Well, from Tangler, flicked me an email the other day.

On a recent trip to the valley I attended a STIRR Mixer. It was a fantastic; great people and a fun format. I’ve known the organizer, Sanford Barr, for a while and really like the spirit of what he’s trying to do - help entrepreneurs - so rather than reinvent the wheel, Sanford and I decided it would be better for us to just host a STIRR event in Sydney (the first outside the valley).

So STIRR Sydney will be held on Wednesday 6th of December starting at 7pm. It’ll be standup, with finger food supplied, and a whole bunch of interesting and entertaining ’startup games’ for the night.

We’re also inviting 3 to 5 startups to show off their stuff. If you have a startup, or know of one who would like to get involved, please let me know.

What you need to do:

1. Go to the wiki page (http://stirr.dinner20.com) and register yourself (it’s first come first served so hurry up)

2. Pass this email on to people you think would be good to have at the event.

3. Think of an aussie internet startup that would like to demo and have them contact me.

4. Send me a web 2.0 joke. (Or simply provide an answer to “How many web 2.0 startups does it take to change a light bulb?”)

Also, a big thanks to the event sponsors:
· Tech Venture Partners (http://www.tvp.com.au)
· Atlassian (http://www.atlassian.com)
· Tangler (http://www.tangler.com)

I’d like to go, but we’re still to early to be showing of our project.
