  @-party
       
           /at'par-tee/ (Or "@-sign party" /at'si:n par'tee/,
          from the @ sign in an electronic mail address) A
          semi-closed party thrown for hackers at a science-fiction
          convention (especially the annual Worldcon); one must have an
          electronic mail address to get in, or at least be in company
          with someone who does.  One of the most reliable opportunities
          for hackers to meet face-to-face with people who might
          otherwise be represented by mere phosphor dots on their
          screens.

  @-party /at'par`tee/ n. [from the @-sign in an Internet address] (alt.
     `@-sign party' /at'si:n par`tee/) A semi-closed party thrown for hackers
     at a science-fiction convention (esp. the annual World Science Fiction
     Convention or "Worldcon"); one must have a network address to get in,
     or at least be in company with someone who does. One of the most
     reliable opportunities for hackers to meet face to face with people who
     might otherwise be represented by mere phosphor dots on their screens.
     Compare boink.
  
     The first recorded @-party was held at the Westercon (a U.S. western
     regional SF convention) over the July 4th weekend in 1980. It is not
     clear exactly when the canonical @-party venue shifted to the Worldcon
     but it had certainly become established by Constellation in 1983. Sadly,
     the @-party tradition has been in decline since about 1996, mainly
     because having an @-address no longer functions as an effective lodge
     pin.
  
     We are informed, however, that rec.skydiving members have maintained a
     tradition of formation jumps in the shape of an @; picture at
     `http://www.birdwalk.com/DevilsWorkshop/favorites/source/6.html'.
