Hey Roger, These are great ideas. If you want to use IRC... I've been idling in #909linux for, oh about 2 years now. I don't think a single person has ever joined since at least 2004. ( and I put the server up when the domain was regged... ) :)
You know, I kind of liked the way the guys in Murietta met up. They just meet at a coffee house that has free wi-fi, and it's very bring-yourself only kind of thing. Kind of a social gathering, but we all had a great conversation. I think we should at least get together and tell war-stories... or examine the whole M$ thing. Show & Tell would be cool too. Last week in Murrieta, I guess I informally showed making VOIP calls on the Nokia 770 handheld, I could bring that if anyone up here wanted to play with it. I had a mental note to stop by the Fox coffee house on Barton, or else find one in Grant Terrace that had wi-fi and see if they had 2 large-ish tables where people could gather on a Sunday evening. Anyone know of another place we could gather a group of 5 or more and use free wireless? :) What about next Sunday, the 12th? 6-ish pm? --David Roger Rustad wrote: > What do other 909/951'ers think about these ideas? > > (1) Show and Tell: At the next meet, each of us brings something > interesting to share with the other members.
