Web Wednesday - Social Mixer V23 (April 7)

Calling All Hong Kong Digerati! (Including you budding bloggers out there!)

For our next social mixer on TUESDAY 7th April, we've invited Matt Mullenweg, the founding developer of WordPress, the blogging software that runs millions of sites around the world. (Before you ask...yes, we did change the event to a Tuesday just for Matt!)

Matt has been named one of PC World’s Top 50 People on the Web, Inc.com’s 30 under 30, and Business Week’s 25 Most Influential People on the Web.


We'll be speaking about "The Bare, Naked Realities of Blogging", amongst other things.

The night kicks off at 6:30pm and ends around 9:30pm, so you'll have plenty of opportunity to mix with the movers and shakers of our local internet industry.

There will be an entrance fee of HK$100, unless you're a bona-fide student, in which case it's HK$50. This includes one complimentary drink. All other drinks are at Happy Hour prices. (We will issue a receipt, if you require one). As per our last event, we will donate 10% to charity (more later).

Do invite your blogging friends and curious colleagues to join the Asian Digerati on Tuesday 7th April at our new funky venue, Volar, Basement, 38-44 D'Aguilar Street, Lan Kwai Fong, Central.

You can sign for the event on this blog, on Facebook or on LinkedIn. (Too much choice?)

Looking forward to seeing old faces and meeting many more new ones,

Thanks for the notice! I will definitely drop by if time permits after work. I would not have known about this event had you not dropped me an email. I will not only post this on my blog, I will forward this info to my blogging friends.
