Bangalore hopefully has enough LessWrongers to have its own meet up. I suggest having one in the afternoon on Saturday, 28th May at Cubbon Park Bandstand. (Behind the high court in Cubbon park).
I commit to be there from 4 pm-7 pm with a LW meetup sign and a book (can't commit to which book I'll be reading two weeks hence, so will edit that in later. I'll be wearing a red kurta though). Since I don't know any Bangaloreans here and have never stood around in a public park holding up a sign before, comments showing interest will be much appreciated as morale-boosters. :)
I'm open to suggestions regarding both time and place.
Damn, I can't believe there was meet up here and I missed it :(
I should be lurking more often here. So, what was the turn out like? Minutes of the meeting, anyone?
:( And I posted it two weeks in advance too!
Me and Twig turned up and first despaired of having enough to talk about for 3 hours in case nobody turns up and well looking at our watches at seven and deciding that we should probably leave.
No minutes - the discussion was all over the place. We decided to try again for a meetup a couple of months later and see if we'll get a better turn out. So far I know the three of us from Bangalore and one person in Chennai. Other lurkers are requested to comment here or PM me so we can get a propah meetup going. And anyone from Chennai/Hyd etc can also let us know if they'll be interested in joining a Bangalore meetup.
