Brightcove has an exciting lineup of meetups over the next two weeks. If you're in the area for any of these meetups, we would love to have you join us for the festivities.

San Francisco: First up is the Brightcove Alliance Meetup in San Francisco at 6pm Thursday September 10th. Join Brightcove CEO Jeremy Allaire along with Bay Area partners and customers for an evening of networking, demos and drinks. Brightcove Alliance partners Boxee, Cooliris, Apture and Qik are scheduled to do demos of solutions that integrate with Brightcove's open platform. The meetup will take place at the Thirsty Bear brew pub (661 Howard Street San Francisco, CA 94105). You can RSVP here: http://anyvite.com/f9clwmghsf

Toronto: Next up is the Brightcove Toronto Meetup. Join us on Thursday September 10th for drinks and apps and all things Brightcove. We'll have representation from Account Management, Sales, and Product on hand to answer questions, update you on the latest, and mainly catch up in person. There will also be partners on hand to discuss their products and services and how they integrate into Brightcove 3. There will be an open bar, great music, and a quiz(!), so make sure you are on your toes, at least as far as web video goes! Feel free to invite a colleague or two, and make sure you RSVP so we know to expect you. We will be at The Boiler House, in either a Cabana or under an Umbrella (rain location - indoors at the bar). You can RSVP here: http://brightcovetoronto.eventbrite.com/

Cambridge: Last, but certainly not least, is the upcoming Brightcove Developer Meetup in Cambridge, Mass. Come join us for a night of networking, drinks, and presentations with the Brightcove engineering team at our office in Kendall Square. For the first hour, we have a lot of team members excited to show off what they've been working on. There will be presentations about the iPhone, live streaming, Palm Pre, advertising, and more. Afterwards, the Brightcove team will be around to talk about whatever you're interested in. Feel free to share the invite- anybody interested in Brightcove is welcome to come. Just remember to RSVP so we can plan accordingly: http://anyvite.com/events/home/lynepgalce
