Welcome to the social
18 January 2007
As we surge relentlessly into the new year, the London tech scene is waking from its Christmas slumber and kicking off the year with a vengeance. First up tonight is Pub Standards XIV, which mostly involves going down the pub. That’s about it really.
It also looks like there’s another Geek Dinner in the offering for the end of January – I haven’t decided if I’m going yet but I’m sure it’ll be fun.
In February, however, it gets serious – after the success of the first one, BarCamp London 2 is happening 17th-18th. The last one was immensely interesting, so assuming I get my name on the sign-up (come on Ian, let us sign-up!) I’m very much looking forward to this one.
Directly after BarCamp is the Future of Web Apps Conference which I’ve somehow wangled a ticket for. With speakers including Michael Arrington, Kevin Rose, Khoi Vinh, Matthew Ogle and many more it should be very interesting. With both BarCamp and FOWA happening at the same time, I’m sure their will be some after hours events as well – it’s certainly looking pretty busy of the next few months…
