Downtown Seattle's new sexy lounge Suite 410 played host to over 75 media professionals including journalists, PR and marketing people, TV and film professionals and new media types. It was a fabulous way to kick off the fall season, surrounded by media compadres while the drinks flowed abundantly. Bar owner Max Borthwick opened his cozy establishment to mediabistro.com and threw us a killer private party. If you weren't there, you'd do well to check out the next one.
