While ‘conversing’ with Phu Ly, I thought that it would be cool to organise a WordPress meetup in London. I mean why should Denmark have a meetup and the UK be left behind in this area? Now for all those of you thinking to yourself, well how good is it actually going to be? I dunno, what I will say however is that I’ve done this online to real meeting endevour once before, for the Designate Online meetup a few months ago. I didn’t know ANYONE, and everyone else seemed to know each other. I got Martina to tag along just in case I had to use her as an excuse to leave.

Turned out to be one of the best evenings/days I’ve had in a while. Just a really good bunch of people, talking all sorts of things. Got some pointers about design, talked about topics that ACTUALLY interest me, with people that understand what the IE peekaboo bug is, know what Pixelsurgeon is etc.

This would be slightly different in that most people would know if I mentioned the design in any one of these blogs. Hey I might even bring a print out of a section of what Shuttle is currently looking like.

So if you’re in the UK and you’re interested in making a day event in London, prefereably on a Saturday, add your name and tell everyone else about it as well.

So hopefully rather than ‘conversing’ with each other, we can actually TALK to each other, and generally put faces to names.

I propose the:

30th of April.

Too soon? Too late? What does everyone else think?
