Utah Blogger/Geek Dinner: July 2008

Filed under: Utah Geeks — Laura Moncur @ 5:00 am

Charlie and Jason by LauraMoncur from FlickrI really enjoyed this month’s Utah Blogger/Geek Dinner. We had over 25 people show up this time. You can see all the photos here:

Of course, I forgot to take a picture of myself. If any of you snapped a photo of me at the dinner, please comment with a link to it here.

I used the AirMe app on my iPhone to take and upload all these photos. It is good program for events like these because it will upload the photos to Flicker, put them all into a photoset and add tags for the location and weather. It made documenting the dinner SO much easier.

This month we had the dinner at Paradise Bakery. The kind of restaurants that let you stand in line and order and then sit down with the group with your food are SO much better for these events than the ones where you have to deal with waiters. I need to find places like this all over the city so we can have our geek dinners in comfort EVERY month.

  • My iPhone thinks it’s in MN, not UT. I tried a restore yesterday to no avail. I know others have had this trouble. What up, Apple?!! #
