Please allow a short moment for some trumpet blowing. These are a few messages about yesterday’s Birmingham Social Media Cafe that cropped up on Twitter:

  • gandylovely to meet all the Birmingham social media crew. Amazing scene up here. Now heading back to London Village to do some real #work

There were more too which you can see on this Twitter search.

However! Lest we rest on our laurels, if you have any suggestions for the greater betterment of these get-togethers then please make haste for the comments box below.

So, thanks to everyone who came down yesterday, especially the many new faces that made it along and Jason from Clarity Digital who stumped up for the drinks. The next one will be on Friday 26 June with info going up in the usual places very soon.

May’s meet-up

Time really has flown since the last get-together and the next one is already just a couple of days away.

As ever we’ll be downstairs at the Coffee Lounge on Navigation Street from 10am to midday. Coffees this month are being provided by Clarity Digital. If you take advantage then do say thanks.

As with the last few meet-ups there’s likely to be a few people hanging around to do some work in the afternoon (co-working, as the kids are calling it).

There’s a good number of people signed up on the Facebook event and a couple more on the wiki so that’s all good. If you’re planning to come then maybe add yourself to one so others can see.

If you’ve not come down to the Birmingham Social Media Cafe before then it’d be good to see you. Things are nice and informal and the best way to get involved is simply to walk up to someone and introduce yourself. Everyone’s there for chats so get stuck in!
