So, last night the handful of us new media guys in town got together at The Merchant Taphouse to hang out and talk new media over a few drinks and some wings. We’ve now establish a name, a domain is forthcoming, and a frequency. We got a lot of work done too on where we want to go with the local new media stuff, too. More details on that will be established as we go forward - but the wheels are in motion for some exciting things in Kingston.

Thanks to David Bailey and birthday boy Francis Wooby for making the trek downtown to be a part of last night’s meetup.

Want to join us for the next one? It will be held on the second Monday of December (That’s the 11th) and will be held once again at the Merchant Taphouse once again at 7:00pm. Are you coming?

Kingston’s first meetup - Small, but wonderful

So this past Monday I made my way down to the Kingston Brewing Company for Kingston’s first local new media meetup!
Originally I sent emails to 3 people and posted it here and on Twitter. It looked for the longest time that all 3 invitees were attending… But life happened and the meetup consisted of Francis [...]

So this past Monday I made my way down to the Kingston Brewing Company for Kingston’s first local new media meetup!

Originally I sent emails to 3 people and posted it here and on Twitter. It looked for the longest time that all 3 invitees were attending… But life happened and the meetup consisted of Francis and I hanging out and talking. Was great to get to know another new media type in town. I’ve only got one left to my knowledge

Some stats of the night:

• We switched tables no less then three times.
• 3 add-ons joined us, all awesome people… None in the new media space. Meant for even more fun.
• 1 pizza and 1 poutine were consumed.
• 2 meals (Before the post-drink snacks) were eaten

Overall, the night was a great success. I’m working on the next one. Tentative date is October 22nd. Feedback and ideas wecome and encouraged.
