A few digital events …
I love hearing about new technology developments and I’m generally a sociable guy so enjoy meeting fellow digital and web enthusiasts, but I’ve never been one that has to be at all the happening events going on. I decided to miss Media140 a couple of weeks ago as it seemed at the time to be aimed more at journalists, however the live tweeting was pretty extensive and I managed to follow some of that. That said, there are a couple of events within a week of each other that I’m planning to go to in the next few days.
Ale2.0
When: Thursday, 4 June, 7-9pm
Where: The Harp, Covent Garden
Dreamt up by the chaps at VI, Ale2.o is a meet-up for people in digital, PR, design etc who also enjoy supping pints of ale. Sounds very fine to me.
Being-Digital ‘09
When: Tuesday, 9 June, 9am-7.30pm
Where: CBI Centre, London
This event is produced by the mashup team and is designed for businesses in digital technology, particularly start-ups. I’ve got a particular interest in this one as the programme includes some ‘Angel’s Den’ speed pitching. Exciting stuff!
Sadly, I wasn’t quick enough to pick up tickets for FOWA ‘09 later this year – they sold out in ten minutes flat. Will be watching the twitterfall and the videos for that one.
