There has been a short break in the Nottingham Girl Geek Dinner schedule. However get in contact to find out about future event, to get a chance to speak or to get involved in organising future events.

Hopefully normal service will be resumed shortly, thanks for your patience. 

Our second meeting... yipee!

What: Want to know a bit more about what a Girl Geek Dinner is? 

When: Monday 3rd August @ 7pm

Where: Fat Cats Restaurant

Cost: £10 (this is the cost for food)

Why: Our speaker for this evening is Kate Bolin who is a Nottingham based web designer, likes web standards and accessibility but is happiest when up to her elbows in CSS. She is also a prolific knitter. You can find out more about Kate on her entertaining blog: http://www.katemonkey.co.uk/.

Every year the website that is a regular stomping groud for all proffesional web designers; A List Apart, runs a web survey to look at the current industry around the globe. Kate will be looking at the results from the most recent A List Apart Web Workers survey, to examine what it tells us about being a woman working in web design. Leave your preconceptions at the door as we have look at the industries and sectors that offer support for women in IT. Then expect a lively conversation afterwards.

REGISTER FOR THIS EVENT!

Apologies to Tracy Mayfield (@PaintedGhost) that it has taken me so long to get these up. Unfortunately they still frown on human cloning, so I have been really busy lately. Here are her excellent photos of our first event where Susi O'Neill gave a fantastic talk about Social Media for Business.

Thanks to Tracy, you can see more of her work at www.paintedghost.co.uk

I've just returned from Nottingham's Girl Geek Dinners and I am really pleased. Everyone was lovely and a huge thanks to everyone who came out. A big thank you to Susi O'Neill for her excellent presentation on 'Social Media for Business' the presentation is on Slideshare now: http://www.slideshare.net/susioneill/22-06-09-girl-geek-dinners-social-media-for-biz 

I've read through the feedback and there is some really useful comments in there and I will do my best to implement as much of it as possible. Some of it is newbie mistakes and easy to fix, so thanks for the feedback. Yet it was all really positive and I am really pleased that my first ever event went so well. Everyone was really supportive, it was a great atmosphere.

If anyone has anymore feedback they would like to leave, feel free to leave a comment or email/twitter me. Does anybody have any feedback on the venue? 

Photos should follow shortly (thanks to @Paintedghost)
