Since I consider myself both a geek and a gourmand, I thought I’d let you all know about the upcoming Geek Dinner Montreal. For those not in the know, Geek Dinners are events when local (and passing through) geeks sit down together to break bread and bounce ideas off of each other’s neural networks.
If you’re into Web 2.0, social media, or the local tech scene, you should probably come check it out. Mitch Joel has all the details over on his blog:
Tod Maffin from the CBC - Canadian Broadcasting Corporation - and Blogger over at TodBits let me know that he is coming to Montreal and game for a Geek Dinner.
We’re going to do our best to keep this a bit smaller, but here are the details (as of now):
- Geek Dinner Montreal with Special Guest Tod Maffin.
- Tuesday, September 11th, 2007.
- 7:00 pm.
- Location to-be-confirmed.Here’s how it works: based on the amount of people, I get us a reservation at a local Montreal restaurant (usually somewhere around the St. Laurent/Prince Arthur area). If you would like to join us, there are three ways to make it happen:
1. Email me your full name, email address and the company you work for.
2. Leave a comment below with the same information as above.
3. Check out the Facebook Event I created over here: Geek Dinner Montreal With Tod Maffin.Everyone who comes pays their own way. Recording and taking pictures/video is always welcome. […]
My one major request is that if you RSVP that you are coming, please make sure to not stiff us. The restaurant is kind enough to allow us to make a reservation as a group, but because of the size, if anyone does not show, they wind up losing the business (and I wind up looking bad).
