framing of the danish geekdinners

The danish blogosphere is bursting with events right now. you have geekdinner no 5 on the 28th of october, bloggerdinners occassionally,
blogforum and barcamp ( the two last ones within a month)…

and really I have thought about quitting the geekdinners - because I don’t know if there’s space for them anymore ( you tell me - are there? - I would really hate to see them go.)

so far how I see all these events like this;

*Blogforum is for bloggers.

*bloggerdinners are for ” the usual suspects”

*BarCamp Copenhagen is an un-conference for companies and persons with a view on technology and the future - who wants to participate in the conversation and share their views

and Geekdinners has always been framed for me like this:

dinners for people who are passionate and fascinated

from wikipedia: A geek (IPA: [gi?k]) is a person who is fascinated, perhaps obsessively, by obscure or very specific areas of knowledge and imagination, usually electronic or virtual in nature.

so usually we are social software geeks ( bloggers and wiki-freaks), fashion geeks, ruby on rails geeks, museum geeks, technology geeks and music geeks…
allthough we are all very inspiring - and we like each other a lot… we like to keep the forum open.
therefore we invite all others to participate, for conversation and sharing.

you can sign up for geekdinner here - it’s our 1st birthday
