MeFi IRL

Okay it's a long shot, but are there any mefites in Sault Ste Marie, either in Michigan or in Ontario? My mefite spouse and junior mini-mefites will be in town between July 23 and August 2 or so and I think it'd be cool to raise a glass to Mefi on this, its 20th. Anyone interested?

Hey Michiganders! By now I hope you're recovered from holiday madness and ready to kick back with your fellow mitten-wearing MeFites. We're meeting at Cultivate Coffee in Ypsilanti on Sun Jan. 21 from 4-8PM. Hopefully that will accommodate both early and latecomers. It's a nice bright shop with coffee, tea, beer and snacks. So stoked! Bring your pals! [more inside]

Penguicon is a combination scifi convention and open source conference that's been running annually for 15 years. I'm a guest of honor at Penguicon 2017 (my schedule), as is MeFi's own Cory Doctorow (schedule) and Ada Palmer (schedule) whose work's been discussed on MetaFilter several times. Other speakers include MeFi's own John Scalzi. [more inside]

So, last meetup we talked about doing another one this summer, before I leave town. So, Friday Aug 15 at 5 pm in the Ann Arbor Beer Garden. There's food right next door at Mark's Carts so we might be over there, and if it rains, check this space for alternate plans. [more inside]

Didn't feel like getting out of town? Looking for an excuse to skip out on a picnic/barbeque/party? Want to meet up on Memorial Day? [more inside]
