For the third year in a row (if you include 2008's Media Meshing blowout), Internet Week attendees from all over will congregate at Sweet & Vicious's back garden to drink margaritas in a jar while networking and/or flirting with New York's most glittering, self-obliterating literati under the gently darkening skies.

This year, we will be blowing out all the stops! We have rented out THE WHOLE BAR at Sweet & Vicious!, and will be removing tables to create much more room for everyone! We will not only have special sponsored cocktails for the first hour by Fidencio Mezcal, but a step-and-repeat, gift bags, and giveaways!! We also have a special photo booth by Jeffrey Donenfeld, so be sure to stop by and get your photo taken!

Sponsored, as always, by RandomNightOut, Citysearch, and a bunch of other wonderful sponsors listed below! Invite friends but be sure they RSVP - and come early, this won't be one to miss! [http://obliteratiparty.com]
