GDC: anyone want to meet up and talk about web 2.0 and games?
c.f.: http://tmachine1.dh.bytemark.co.uk/blog/index.php/2008/01/17/gdc08-web-20-games-meetup/
After the success of the totally unofficial and informal meetup at AGDC, I'm going to do another one of these at GDC…
If you're interested, send me a "yay" message (or post on here if you can't send me LI emails / don't have my email address).
Basic description:
"a couple of us are going to get together and chat about the head-on-collision between games and Web 2.0. Come along and see if you can outdo everyone else by picking an even larger number and sticking it on the end of a word (why stop at Games 3.0? Let’s go to a hundred!).
There will be no free drinks. No free food. And definitely no cabaret/live entertainment/superstar DJ’s. But hopefully there will be some interesting and friendly people with a shared interest here.
At Austin GDC, I expected about 5-10 people, and we had about 30. I have no idea yet how many people would be interested at GDC"
(actually, I've got about 10 people confirmed so far).
Clarification added February 2, 2008:
Date is TBA, still working on the major breaks in people's diaries during the week. But sometime after tuesday afternoon and before friday evening.
Maybe friday evening if we get desperate, but probably not - too many people fly home @ 6pm straight after the conference.

I'm interested--when do you plan to do it?

I'm interested, but Friday isn't good for me since I fly home at 7. Since GDC is increasingly useless--I don't plan on attending many actual lectures. Just pigging out on crabs and calamari salad on the wharf...so if anyone wants to bail from the show one day and do it during the day that's fine by me. (Just not the tutorial days, I'm actually going to those)
I'm interested!
