Hope everyone had fun at last night's meeting.<br><br>I think that we had a good discussion regarding locations, and I think<br>that the next step is for Tim to provide us with a list of locations,<br>and we set up a basic online poll so we can vote on where to meet.
<br>I do think, however, that it's important to have a "primary" base, and<br>have occasional meetings away from that base. That should keep us from<br>fragmenting and shrinking like the Mac group did.</blockquote>
<div><br>There might be a delay on getting the list of potential meeting
locations. My laptop died on me last night. It looks like it might be
a loose connection for the video, so I'm hopeful that is it. Surgery
is scheduled for 8:00PM tonight. If all goes well, I will post the
meeting notes tonight or tomorrow. I will get the list of meeting
places together at the same time.<br><br>Unfortunately, that means I was unable to take notes during some of the meeting. Matt, I think you mentioned something about having notes. If you have them, could you e-mail them to me so I can include them in the post? Josh, same goes for you. The problems started during your InkScape presentation, so I don't know how much I got.

<br>people willing to talk about social sites. I have a general overview<br>worked up, that I can give, but I'd not talk the whole time, so please<br>start thinking about what you either want to say or want to hear.</blockquote>
<div><br>I can talk about digg and a little about delicious, flickr, LinkedIn, and Classmates. <br></div><br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;">
Lastly, at dinner, I made a few comments about <a href="http://instructables.com">instructables.com</a>. It's<br>basically what it sounds like. You can write instructions for people<br>and share them with everyone. For example:
<br><br>* Upgrade Your iPod Mini With Flash Memory -<br><a href="http://www.instructables.com/id/EX4ECMRF0ZTLLI8/">http://www.instructables.com/id/EX4ECMRF0ZTLLI8/</a><br>* How to make a Green Lantern ring -<br><a href="http://www.instructables.com/id/EUS0W80F2XW9PF4/">
