Geek/Blogger Events Coming Up (CES plans?)

December 19, 2005 By

In Silicon Valley next week? Come to our blogger/geek dinner at Palo Alto’s Cheesecake Factory. December 30, 2005 at 6 p.m. All are invited.

In Las Vegas at CES? Let’s get together. First, on Friday evening, January 6, we’re looking to get something going. We’re looking to do a Naked Conversation dinner or something. Ideas wanted. Where should we meet? We’ll probably need to RSVP, so we’ll need to keep track of who is coming (leave a comment here and we’ll keep you in touch).

MacWorld? I’m gonna try to get down for a day or two of that. Anyone planning any dinners?

Anything else going on that we should join in over the next couple of weeks?

    Sign me up, tentatively, Robert & Shel! I’ll be in town through the weekend (as CES press, natch, as a blogger) and then at the sold-out Affiliate Summit 2006 immediately thereafter in Vegas (see http://www.affiliatesummit.com/ ). If I can’t make that, I’d be up for lunch, coffee, beers, late-night nachos, whatever!

    Cheers!

    There used to be a great morrocan restaurant that was a ways off the strip and would be great for an informal dinner/gathering. Other than that, any bar big enough to hold a lot of people and without a band to drown us out.

    I’ll be in for CES, maybe a post Bill Gates keynote dinner thing.

    Wouldn’t it be awsome if Bill came?

    Out of curiosity, is anyone in Chicago doing this type of thing? We Midwesterners are feeling a bit left out…

    For macworld, there’s no real “bloggers” dinner per se, because there’s nothing that new or exciting about blogging as a thing unto itself.

    What nights would you be in S.F., and I can tell you what’s going on.

    I’ll be there for the 30th (and I hate the Cheesecake Factory, so that’s saying something :) ), and I’ll be at Macworld most days. I’m hosting a breakfast thing on thursday, but otherwise I’m mostly attending.

    For those planning events for Macworld, do understand that Macworld has a *very* full social calendar, and if you are conflicting with certain events, you’re going to be outta luck. if you’re planning something for late Friday, you may run into people leaving town that day.

    It is not a bad idea to visit here: http://ilenesmachine.com/partylist.shtml

    to get an idea of what’s going on. It’s not 100% complete, but, it’s a good place to look.

    30th in south bay? count me in. (although I agree with Todd, there are so many fine independent local creative inexpensive fun restaurants here, why ever patronize a national chain?)

    For Macworld (hi, John!), what I’ve seen happen in past years among a core crowd of Mac bloggers is a lunch expedition to nearby Specialties restaurant to pick up some incredible sandwiches/baked goods and then enjoy them outdoors (weather permitting) or the user group room at the show. I’d be willing to help make this happen, perhaps Wednesday?

    I’m also working to organize a FileMaker developers gathering, a little more formal/organized, with a presentation of some cool tools, more likely later in the day Wed or Thurs.

    who asks: if I’ve gone to every Macworld/SF for all 21 years, does that mean I have to go forever?
