I mean, if they had some interesting or vaugly knowledgable person speaking at each meet then I might consider it, but do you really want to be surrounded by a bunch of wouldbe backyard designers with ego problems? Having to talk to a bunch of 16 year old dreamweaver bloggers would send me postal. Now, where's that cream...
CRO8 Bipolar (III) Inmate From: New York City Insane since: Jul 2000	posted 07-19-2003 03:41 I disagree. Meeting new people with similar interests is always good. If someone is unemlpoyed-good place to network. If someone is looking for a partner in an upcoming project- make connections. If someone is looking for a new job- possibly meet folks who have an open position. Always good to meet new people. And if it sucks- I will sense it in the first 10 minutes, then leave.
