2004/01/08 Meeting
Although it is a good two weeks away, it might be nice to start thinking about the next meeting and how we want to set the stage for the new year. Possible topics:
- Planning for Hank Barry’s visit on January 22
- Dave wants to talk about efforts to establish a center for blogging and related technology at Harvard
- How about Dave’s new feed feature?
- How should we submit this group blog to the feed feature? (Whose name and e-mail address should we use? Will using an e-mail address again erase a previous entry?)
- A report from the first blog training at MIT? (Bob also has notes.)
- Humor in the blogging environment: how to express sarcasm and humor to blog readers
- Does Dave want to talk about the RSS conference on January 21-22?
- j might want to talk about her RSS article if she can get a draft together in 2 weeks (ha ha ha fat chance of that: j defers until next week)
- Where are we going to eat?
- “How about at a restaurant?” typed j sarcastically.
- We just ate at The Bombay Club.
- There’s that pizza place Veggie Planet that has vegan options. I hear you can get dairy-based cheese if you ask for it. (Burt notes in the comments that Vegan pizza is merely available.)
- While the students are away, we could try some places that are usually very crowded, like … ?
- What about 9 Tastes (inexpensive, but good Thai food. May not be able to accommodate more than 10 of us, though.) on JFK Street? Spice is also good Thai, but a bit more expensive. (They may be able to better accommodate 10 or more.)
- I’m pretty sure Grafton Street has vegan entrees, definitely vegetarian items, and Michael could get a beer. Good price range on the menu.
- The Redline on JFK Street is similar.
- “How about at a restaurant?” typed j sarcastically.
