Have you ever said any of the following?
- 1) That Jake fellah (or other ScienceBlogger) has insightful things to say. By Heaven, I would like to meet him and discuss said insights.
- 2) That Jake fellah (or other ScienceBlogger) is one sexy mama. I am aroused by the possibility of discussing science with him in person.
- 3) That Jake fellah (or other ScienceBlogger) is a big fat jerk. I sure would like to meet him so I can punch him in the snoot.
If the answer is "yes" to any of those statements, you are in luck. SEED magazine will be hosting a ScienceBlogger meetup in New York on August 9th at ~3 in the afternoon. (Location details to follow.) I have been assured of the presence of snacks and swag. Those bloggers located near the NY area will likely attend including yours truly.
What we would like to get some tentative sense of how many people are interested. If you would like to come leave your name (pseudonyms are fine...we just need a count) in the comments. You can also email me at jamesjyoung <
Thank you, and I look forward to meeting those of you who can make it.
