It’s a chill scene. No uber networking, self-promotion or company promotion. Just be cool. We’re all friends you haven’t met yet.

Get Geeky in May!
So it’s that Monday tomorrow, and the Get Geeky South Bay is on and at the usual place, the Red Car Brewery in Torrance. There’s a lot to talk about this month, with Facebook privacy in the news, a possible upcoming iPhone, and more. Come on out and join us!
The Get Geeky is meant to be a casual gathering of ‘geeks’ over beers (or whatever your drink preference is)....

Changing tactics
The past few Get Geeky’s have been a bit low on turnout. The few of us who do come have a great time discussing everything from Android to copyright law to Apple iPad sales. Unfortunately, this event hasn’t quite become what I’d envisioned, and that’s my own fault. I’m just not a born promoter.
For the Get Geeky to really shine as a great event, we need more people....

March Edition of the Get Geeky!
It’s that time again folks. Come on by the Red Car Brewery tonight at 7PM for some beer, food, and good chats on anything geeky. We are a local group that gathers for fun, no requirements other than you like to chat about things internet/tech/creative. We are freelance designers, copywriters, engineers, and more.
Here are directions.

Lucky Baldwin's Belgian Beerfest
Lucky Baldwins bar in Pasadena (yes I know it’s not the South Bay) has a delicious festival twice each year featuring over 50 Belgian Beers on tap. The festival goes for 3 weeks straight, and I plan on attending this Saturday from about 3-7pm, and I hope to see some of you there! http://luckybaldwins.com/NewIndex.html

First meetup for 2010!
It’s the first Get Geeky of 2010! Tonight is our first meeting of the year, and I know we have a couple new faces coming tonight. I’m looking forward to getting out of the rain and sharing a few beers with everyone.
As always, details of the meet are in the sidebar over yonder. 3rd Monday of the month, Red Car Brewery in Torrance. Remember to bring some cash to help pay for your food...
Get Geeky for 2010
Happy new year everyone! I hope your 2009 ended well, and that 2010 brings you all the happiness it can. 2009 was a big year for geeks and the tech industry as a whole. 2010 looks to be even bigger. We should have plenty to talk about!
This month our Get Geeky lands on the 18th. 7PM to whenever (usually 9ish) at the Red Car Brewery in Torrance. I’m once again considering some alternate...

Happy holidays!
Next Monday is when we would normally have our Get Geeky South Bay get together, but it’s the holidays, so we’re going to hold off until January. Go get geeky with your family, because we know they love you for it.
Have a wonderful holiday season everyone. I look forward to starting 2010 off in a geeky way.

Local Coworking Spots
As some of us are freelancers without a typical office, I thought I’d share a few local coworking spots in the area. If you aren’t familiar with coworking, there are a few places you can check out for more details. Coworking has been a growing phenomenon all across the globe, with many locations in the U.S. as well.
Over in Los Angeles there is BLANKSPACES. From their site:

Who's counting anyway?
I think this will be #7, but counting has never been my forte. Yes, it’s that time again folks. Our monthly Get Geeky South Bay meetup. We had 2 new faces last month and had a really great time. I’d really love to see some more new faces, so if you are interested at all, come on down!
We are a gathering of geeks, but the term is loosely applied here. We are from diverse backgrounds...
