Well, I think that's the challenge with really trying to roll this around the world. Your Friday afternoon at 4 NZ time is our midnight the night before (I mistakenly said 10pm in an earlier thread). So to really have it roll we would need someone else to bridge the gap of 16 hours if we wanted to have ours at 4pm US Eastern time. Sure, if others wanted to, I'd certainly carry the torch for the US (whether just the eastern zone or the west, too, if they wanted to come on earlier in their day).
It may be way too late to try to hope to organize that this time. And now that I see it's midnight my time, I'm afraid I won't likely be able to even come hang out as I'd hoped. It's a great idea, though, whether just a single group or perhaps later a rolling thing around the world. I wish you well with it, and certainly am happy to help trying to get it going more broadly if anyone's interested. /charlie From: cfaussie@googlegroups.com [mailto:cfaus...@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Kai Koenig Sent: Wednesday, June 24, 2009 2:44 AM To: cfaussie@googlegroups.com Subject: [cfaussie] Re: Virtual ANZ Friday beer o'clock... - Connect room link And imagine how cool it'd be to continue beer o'clock for brekkie Sat morning when the Europeans actually have their Friday night :) Kai it almost sounds like the round-the-world CF8 launch back in 2007. Lots of ppl in Europe/UK inc the "Scotch on the rocks/road" guys. On Wed, Jun 24, 2009 at 3:43 PM, Kai Koenig <k...@bloginblack.de> wrote: Uuuuhh, interesting.

No particular program, just hanging out, exchanging funny links and maybe we can convince some people to show some cool stuff - but no pressure :) Kai --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "cfaussie" group.
