MiniBar2

You think about creating the next Last.fm, flickr, or Web 2.0 start up? You think London lacks opportunities to meet up and discuss those ideas?For those who don’t have time to attend a full BarCamp, some of us have come up with
MiniBar, a chance to snaffle some free beer while discussing p2p, Creative Commons, web
applications, social networking and general Web 2.0 mayhem & fandango.

After having 130+ of London’s web crowd the 2nd MiniBar will happen at the same venue on the 8th of December. For a review and some pictures of the 1st MiniBar see: minibar1

This time we will have Saul Albert speaking about a very cool “mobile social networking”
project – for a preview look at: directionless.info

We also have an Open Call: If you do a cool web 2.0 (or maybe 3.0) project and look for
input, ideas, help with development send us a line and you can present for 5 minutes.

Free Beer is bought to you this time by Panther Express.

The MiniBar concept:

It’s fun, it’s free and you don’t have to bring a sleeping bag. Come to Corbet Place for
an early Friday evening get together the at Truman Brewery (off Brick Lane, next to
Spitalfields Market and Liverpool Street Station). There’s a (normal sized) bar, a DJ,
and some nice people to chat to. Who knows, you even might find out something you didn’t
know.

We will continue with our very Situated Social Tagging system! Think people, not URLs, and sticky-backed tags! More on the night…

The meetings will happen at the same venue every month: Corbet Place in the Old Truman Brewery.

The meeting is organized by the people behind CreativeCommons England & Wales,
OpenBusiness.cc, OpenMute.org and ShiftSpace.cc.
