The Slashdot Meetup for Dallas is tomorrow (Thursday), I’ll have to make sure not to forget about that. For those not aware, Meetup is:
A local gathering of a group of people brought together by a common interest. Over coffee, over a beer maybe.
Basically, it's a means of meeting meeting and organizing people with common interests (such as Slashdot, Blogging, or even Xena).
And, hey Julie, there’s even a Meetup for Buffy fans in Dallas ;).
and for those of us who just aren’t geeky enough to have /. cool, there’s the metafilter meetup on the 6th.
Yeah, I’m going to try to make it to the Dallas Meetup for Metafilter as well.
/. stopped being cool back in 1998. kuro5hin, half-empty, plastic, metafilter, backwash have all come up with better technology, and better discussions in the slash-wake. It started out really great but just sort of stopped. Slashdot is the champion of mediocrity.
