And no, this isn’t just a link to Paul Carr’s Twitter.

10. The extended call for a flag-less world. And the single serving website it inspired.

9. Don Dodge, comedian. Between “I can’t believe your mother named you that” to “I’m from Microsoft so I don’t know how to use an iPhone” he had them rolling in the aisles. Also:
Chamillionaire, Scoble, Sean Parker, and Dick Costello, boy band.

8. @fakeyossivardi What other Israeli venture capitalist has a FAKE TWITTER ACCOUNT? Somebody please get this guy a life-stream.

7. Kevin Rose’s deadpan response (“Go blog”) to Mike Arrington’s calling him a “one-trick-pony.”

6. The Anyclip founder’s polemic, “Well they also said there’d never be a black president” to the judges’ (which included Napster founder Sean Parker) suggestion that getting the content companies to license video might be a difficult endeavor.

5. The Techcrunch50 drinking game. I downed at least three bottles of Glenlivet when the Perpetually presenter said, “Content is king.”

4. Operation Sticker Scoble.

3. The increasingly IKEA sounding start-up names. I’m looking at you Lssn.

2. The fact that Jason Calacanis broke the news of TC50′s possible demise to a hard-hitting journalist PUPPET.

1. The Whuffie Bank. God I can’t even write those words without laughing.

Usually it goes like this; The for the most part power brokers are invited to the tech event. Then the day of, an industrious PR chick, realizing that her own gender is way underrepresented, panics at the thought of “too many dicks on the conference floor” and calls up every woman she knows in the space, begging them to come.

For better or worse this is not the case at Techcrunch50, where women are vastly outnumbered (a big collective reader DUH). If you are a woman at these things you usually fall into one of two types: ballsy journalist or well-manicured PR rep. And you are probably a member of an organization called appropriately, “Girls In Tech.”

Which is why it came as no surprise to me, an L.A. native, when an industrious young start-up founder approached me last night with the hit-on line, “Didn’t I see you last week at “Girls In Tech” Palo Alto?”

You have to hand it to him for trying.

And speaking of trying, the big winner this morning from a news stand point (other than Techcrunch coetrie who broke the Mint news quel surprise) was Cnet’s Caroline McCarthy, who provided an insightful round-up of the morning presenters before the presentation was even over.

And on the analysis bent, The Huffington Post’s Maya Baratz provides a comparison and dissection of Jason Calacanis’ statement that Techcrunch50 is the “Sundance of tech conferences.”

So no you didn’t see us at “Girls In Tech,” You saw us on the Internet, breaking your news and writing these blog posts.
