Thanks again to everyone who came out last Thursday night and helped the Houston Startup Happy Hour to be a great success.

This time we got lots of great pictures and you can see them all here:

Best Quotes of the night:

Did you go? Did you meet new people and have good conversations? What more do you feel we can do to make this a great event for everyone? Share your thoughts in the comments section or in our forums.
Also, make sure to join us for OpenCoffee Club on Thursday morning, Jan. 17th and the next Houston Startup Happy Hour on !
Thanks for saying putting my quote on the site! Only problem is that Always Creative’s URL is actually WeAreAlways.com instead of AlwaysCreative.com. If you could adjust that, I’d be super happy!
The website you linked to is not the Always Creative website that Roby is associated with. I think he would have a heart attack being associated with something that looks like that.
The Always Creative website is http://wearealways.com
Sorry for the mixup guys and yeah, that other site was very ugly. Don’t know how I could have ever made that mistake. The link has been corrected.
Thanks again for coming out to the happy hour and looking forward to BarCamp Texas!

Good times, good wine, great peeps! What more could you ask for?
I agree with Robert Brackenridge. This was my first time to attend and I was throughly impressed with the large turnout. It’s good to see an event like this thriving in Houston. I’m looking forward to the next gathering!
