tee-hee 
Thanks for an inspiring night chaps Currently
investigating laconica. Take care!
As group creator, I really should have aimed for First Post! D’oh!
Indeed, it was a really good night but tomorrow’s going to be hard LOL
I’ll make sure I post the notes I took and send the links I promised
tomorrow in between work.
Oh, and with laconica - version 0.8 is due out any time nowish, so I’d
probably hold off until next week really. Take a look at identi.ca to see
what it’s all about
All the best,

of instructables related to things discussed!

http://thinkl33t.co.uk/category/r2-micromouse-robotics-robotics/ And Lastly,
a shameless plug for my robot blog!
Was good meeting you folks last night.
Have been checking out Identi.ca - looks interesting. Found a useful
app which allows you to post to identi.ca / Twitter / friendfeed etc.
at the same time - http://spreadingfunkyness.com/posty/ - Personally
I’d be happy to switch to Identi.ca if I could still send updates as I
do now through Seesmic Desktop or similar and just have it update
whichever accounts I want without much messing about - I await your
advices!
Shameless plug for the blog I contribute to - http://beerblog.colourpool.com/
- Jon won’t like it, we don’t review Blue WKD’s!!
Just to add something else I find useful when working with people from
other offices etc - I have created a quick and dirty map on
mindmeister @ http://www.mindmeister.com/23549235 . Thought this might
be a useful place for dumping ideas/stuff that needs discussing/WIP
etc.
Few other bits of contact info :

I don’t have a tech blog to shamelessly plug, but if you really
desperately want to read the blog I’ve posted to 6 times in the last
year, just do a Google search for “fake pictures of popular female
celebrities in the altogether” !!
