Meet Up: LessWrong Megameetup

atucker 30 January 2012 07:33PM

WHEN: 04 February 2012 12:00:00PM (-0500)

WHERE: Leverage House, New York City (contact for address)

We're holding the second East Coast Megameetup this weekend at the Leverage House in NYC, kindly provided by Geoff and the Leverage Research team.

Contact me at aarondtucker <at> gmail <dot> com for the address, since Geoff doesn't want to post it on the internet.

Besides the opportunity to meet other LWers on your coast, we'll have semi-focused talks starting late Saturday afternoon on nutrition, community-building, leverage, group intelligence, and psychological frameworks.

I'm really looking forward to this, and I hope to see you there!

For those who are not in the area, we will be setting up a webcam and some form of telepresence capability (probably Google Hangout), so you can pop in, say hi, listen to some of the talks and perhaps participate in the discussions. (It's currently unclear how well full-on participation will work, but I'm hoping to steer towards a future where distance isn't an issue for attending Less Wrong meetups)

I'll have more information later this week.

If anybody needs help getting there, I'll be arriving at Penn Station at 3:50 pm on Saturday, and I know the subways pretty well. The downside is I don't own a cellphone, but we can agree on a meet spot and I'll be dressed recognizably.
