Tonight was a mix of socials and mixers for several groups including the two I attended, the Press & Blogger Social and the AEC Mixer. Both were outstanding and held at the House of Blues located in the Mandalay Bay. The Press & Blogger Social was packed wall to wall with several http://www.autodesk.com - Autodesk executives, product teams, as well as the industry press and several bloggers. There was great food and drink including the special “desktini”.

At the AEC Mixer about 1200 people were treated to a group of Autodesk employees playing in a band named AEC /DC. The AEC Mixer then headed up 64 floors to the Foundation Club high atop the Mandalay Bay and what a view there was from up there. It was a blast!
