The 2-Hour Cocktail Party

I need to think of another word to substitute for "icebreaker". People in my profession have all developed an allergy to that word, even if the activity itself is fine at a party to facilitate connections.

Great little book on how to throw a nice get together with people who don't know each other.
Awesome to do it build your netword as the book discribes, but you can also put a lot of the tactics to use on your next birthday party or get-together.
It's basically about becoming an awesome host.
