GoTrillian Trillianite Meeting - NYC

[stev02]

This year we thought it would be a cool idea to try to get a GoTrillian meeting together in New York City. I know not everyone is close to NYC but since it's such a popular and well-known city, why not try?

We're thinking about having it in the fall on a Saturday and sometime in the middle of October. This gives us October 15th or 22nd. If there is enough interest we'll definitely put this idea into action. Post here if you would be interested in attending the outing and any other ideas you may have.

[Mike]

I'd be interested in going if it's sometime noon or later, it's really not that long a drive for me to get to NYC.

Depending on who else is going ( and that it doesn't clash with anything else ), I'd be interested in going.

[gts]

I might be able to make it, depending on the weekend. :(|)

[Roger Zoel]

Hmmmmmm.....interesting, I have vacation time coming up and have never actually stayed in NYC (just driven through)....

[akrus]

hehe, I live in Moscow so I can't, but I really want :)

[dweiss]

Is this for anyone who uses Trillian? Because, personally, I love Trillian, and I'd really like to me all the skinners and programmers and even other Trillianites, so...it is, isn't it?

It's more or less anyone that wants to come.

Alot of times larger communities start get togethers so that the members that have known each other as active on the forum can get together and talk in person for once. It's refreshing every now and then.

But yes, anyone that wants to come can come

The 15th is a long weekend for me. It's not a bad idea, though I remember the last time we tried it. :-p I could probably make it depending on how much spare cash I have at the time.

What is this "spare cash" you speak of? :P

[Kid]

Mid-October sounds good to me.. :)

[nathanhart]

I'll take donations again this year to try and get me there, otherwise I don't see it happening due to finanical shortcummins :(

But if the funds are there I'll make my best efforts to be there :-D

[Roger Zoel]

Would there be some sort of "Who's Attending" list?

[stev02]

See first post for the list.

[EnergyGod]

I might be able to make it.

Blegh! Silly USAliens! They think they're the world! Why not organise something in like, London... even that's expensive for me, but a bit more doable!

Come to think of it... might as well hold two meetings at the same time :P

[dotcomguy]

Yeah...and your point is?

j/k ;-)

If both groups meet at an interent cafe, and some of us brought laptops, we could communicate over IRC :P

[EnergyGod]

And then we will all fight over who gets to type!

I remember the first time an idea about using a webcam was tossed around for the benefit of those who couldn't make it.

Can you imagine the bandwidth sucked up if everyone were to do that?

[sullysnet]

interesting idea, Hi all

[syphen]

I guess I could make it. If I'm still in the area. It'd be nice to meet up with a few of you guys.

[Roger Zoel]

Has an actual date been set for this meeting?
