Time for a MeetUp? by Dan

Things are moving along and Slipstream Studio is now into it’s permanent offices, in Southampton UK.
We are very aware that we’re not the only Digital Agency in the area (in fact not the only one in our office building), so in true spirit of Open Source (wouldn’t be the web without it) we would like to send an open invitation to web agencies, developers, freelancers and designers to attend the first OpenWeb // Southampton Meetup of 2009.

The idea is simple. We will meet at a small venue, with some Coffee / Beer / Pizza (and WiFi) and discuss / meet / share and learn. Ideally we will arrange one keynote speaker with a topic for the evening.

And hey, look at this, we already have a date!
12th February 2009 – 4pm till it ends!

You can sign up and share the info at this page:
http://upcoming.yahoo.com/event/1483224/

To kick things off we’ll happily host things here at Slipstream HQ, but if numbers get too big we’ll quickly move to a bigger local venue.

To get things moving, and to learn a little more, join the Google Group for OpenWeb over at
http://groups.google.com/group/openwebsoton/ where you can sign up to a simple email digest and offer your help / raise questions there.

If anyone wants to drop us a line direct to help move things along email hello {at} slipstreamstudio {dot} com.
Thanks, we hope that this can turn into a regular great event.
