Our local Webgrrls Aotearoa group long ago gave up trying to hold actual face-to-face meetings. We could never find a time that worked for most people, and some of our members bop around the country and the world. These days we have a quiet mailing list, with spurts of activity, and a website that gets updated once in a while.
Although we’re not terribly ‘active’, it’s a friendly and familiar local group of women who are interested in the web, the Internet and technology.
Now Brenda Wallace is hoping to bring the live meetings called Girl Geek Dinners to Wellington:
A fantastic culinary and technical event is coming to Wellington. Planned for the last week of February or early March. (post christmas / webstock / linuxconf / foocamp etc). Right now we’re scoping out venues and getting prices.
…The aim of these get-togethers is to provide a welcoming atmosphere and a platform for learning in an informal environment, to make technology accessible and to be of interest to all age groups and all people, particularly women. It is an opportunity for like-minded ‘girls’ to talk about technology over food and drinks.
If it sounds like your thing head over to the web page, check out the rest of the details, and let Brenda know you’re interested.
