MiniBar4

After work tomorrow I am planning to head over to Corbet Place for MiniBar4 at 6:00pm.

Let’s see…

• I know Andy Piper is going to be there
• I’m hoping to catch up with Mario Menti (who did the BBC Twitter bots)
• stawberryfrog (who I remember fondly from Everything2 days) has expressed an interest, and incidentally also has some handy hints of how to post an event on Upcoming.org
• I met Deirdre Molloy back in September, and I think she might be going

I’m quietly hoping Jim Purbrick, Paul Boag and James Aylett will be around too.

And that’s just some of the people I know I know. There are probably some people I don’t know I know, others I know I don’t know, as well as the untold numbers of people I don’t even know that I don’t know. Oh, and Rumsfeld may even show up.

So, MiniBar. I’m expecting free (as in beer) beer, Moo cards, cameras and conversations. Can’t wait.

Post event update:

Andy and I met in a pub for the second time this week. It didn’t go unnoticed. I met Sig Rinde in person, having previously spoken on James’ phone a while ago. Mario Menti is a lovely guy. I was also delighted to bump into Deirdre Molloy as well as Jemima Kiss, and both Strawberry Frog and LPM were there. Lots of other people too. Good venue. Free beer (for a while at least). The presentations were a mixed bag, but interesting enough. All in all I’m glad I went, and would go to another one in the future.
