  1. This is mainly prompted by the stuff going on around Amplified (in short, a national project to get the various networks around the country to come together for a big event in 2010) but also because it's about time.

    Let's start listing all the various groups, networks and such that exist in Birmingham. From the Blogmeets to the programmer groups and so on. The criteria here is those who have both an online and offline presence. In other words they use social media tools to gather and have a regular-ish meetup in the city.

    Once we've got a decent list we'll start thinking about what we can do with it.

  7. Pete,

    Do social groups count?

    I've got a film group which meets regularly.
