BrumBlogMeet3 Roundup

To be updated over the next week. Please leave links in the comments or email me.

Event organised by Nick Booth via the Birmingham bloggers Facebook group. Here’s the event page.

At least 31 people at Rooty’s on Monday 31st March from 7.00pm. There was a mildly formal session at the start followed by much chatting. If there was a theme it seemed to be on coworking spaces and the like.

Dubber shot a video of the talk.

Special guest was Lloyd Davis from that London. He’s talking about The Tuttle Club

Stef took some photos.

Blog posts
Stef Lewandowski: Roundup of ideas
Hemminac: “Badges for bloggers builds barriers?!”
Antonio Gould: Short post
Charlotte Carey: “the rather mischievous notes/observations I made”
Antonio Roberts: “I’m very interested in seeing what a coworking space, and the people running it, can offer a communtity who are almost completely unknowledgable when it comes to technology.”
Simon Hammond: “There was a lot of discussion about ‘evangelism’, ‘conversion’ and ’spreading the word’ about social media which struck me as odd language.”
Nick Booth roundups the roundups of the roundups. It’s all getting terribly meta…

Twitter grabs
orangejon: definitely thinks that more frequent meets are called for.. I only got to meet such a small portion of the people there tonight!
prlewis: believes that IRC is a kind of virtual co-working and has been going on for years. Come on down to #brum on irc.freenode.net

Stuff that may or may not have come out of it:

Paul Bradshaw built a Birmingham Bloggers Aggregator and a Birmingham Twitterers feed.

Lloyd reminds us in the comments of the Coworking Birmingham wiki that was set up a while back. It’s there for the using.

Pete Lewis has started a Brum Planet which appears to be a massive stream of stuff being produced online in Birmingham. Something for ambient browsing.

Mark Steadman brings us Blogging Brum: a group blog for Birmingham.
