GeekDinner: Garrulous Grape reportback

03 Apr 2008

Another successful Cape Town Geekdinner, Garrulous Grape, has come and gone, marking the start of our second year.  Not much to say beyond great people, great vibe, and, at times, great entertainment (Brad Whittington doing Tania's Slideshow Karaoke was hilarious).

Others have more to say, though:

Special thanks to Perdeberg for the wine - I'm sure there'll be a bunch of new entries into their clink-to-win competition.

Plans for May Cape Town GeekDinner are already underway, and I might organise a GeekBrunch some Sunday or GeekPoker some weeknight in April for those who need an intermediate fix.

Hi, I'm Neil Blakey-Milner, a technology generalist most interested by open source, security, and building scalable systems (especially if I get to use the Python programming language).

I "work" at the incredibly fun web-sites-for-everyone startup SynthaSite based in beautiful Cape Town, South Africa.

What I do

  • StarCamp

    I was the main instigator behind this 2-day unconference in December 2007 in Cape Town. There'll be another one in Cape Town around July.

  • GeekDinner

    I help out in making these geek social events happen every two months in Cape Town since March 2007.

  • SynthaSite

    I make sure that the systems run smoothly at this Cape Town-born Web 2.0 startup.

  • Presentations

    I speak publically on a number of topics - generally related to technical aspects of open source software or on software development.

  • Code

    I've written a few software projects of my own over the years (although mostly I'm the only user of them).

  • Photos

    I'm far from an artist, but I enjoy capturing my experiences on camera.
