Let’s get social in Boston

I’m headed to Boston this coming week for the SNCR Research Symposium and Awards Gala on Friday. There’s a SNCR reception Thursday evening, which I’ll leave a bit early so I can meet up with good friends from Boston—some of whom I’ll be meeting for the first time. We’re gathering at Vox Populi on Boyleston, not far from the Marlowe Hotel where the SNCR event is being held (2.6 miles, about an eight-minute cab ride, according to Google Maps). The event is set for 7 p.m. If you’re from Boston, or will be in town for SNCR (or anything else), I hope you’ll stop by. Here are the details:

7 p.m. on Thursday, November 13
Vox Populi
755 Boyleston

If you know you’re going to make it, leave a comment so we can have something remotely resembling a headcount.

Boston is a hub of social media activity, so I can’t wait to see everyone. And special thanks to John Wall for setting this up.

Geek Dinner Cleveland on April 9

Update: The location is set: Flannery’s, at 323 E. Prospect. We have a couple extra seats at the table, so even if you didn’t RSVP, feel free to show up!

I’m getting into Cleveland, Ohio pretty early (flight delays aside) on April 9. (I’m leading a daylong workshop for the local IABC chapter.) I’ve been talking with Luke Armour for some time about getting together, and the discussion has progressed from two guys having a couple drinks into a full-fledged geek dinner. If you’re interested, let me know by leaving a comment. Based on how many people RSVP, we’ll pick Luke will pick an appropriate place and we’ll let you know (so be sure to include your email address in the comments—it won’t be published). We plan to eat around 6 p.m.
