Columbia PHP Meetup

I just created the Columbia PHP Meetup Group, something we have been wanting to do for a while. The inaugural meeting is going to be held at our headquarters on Mon, 05 Mar 2007:

For our first PHP meetup in Columbia, we're going to be hosting lightning talks, 5-minute talks on anything that you think other PHP enthusiasts might be interested in. We've got a great meeting space at OmniTI and will be ordering plenty of pizza for everyone.

With free food and friendly people like Wez, George, Laura, and Theo around, it should be a fun night.

We have a mailing list for those who are interested in the group.

I hope to see you on the 5th!

I think it's a good step, establishing such communities that have similar interests in different countries rather than and the original source country.

Style Guide

Line breaks are converted to paragraphs. Also use:

  • <a href="" title="">text</a>1
  • <em>text</em>
  • <blockquote><p>text</p></blockquote>
  • <code>2  <?php  if ($foo) {      $foo = TRUE;  }  ?></code>
  1. Note: <code> can be used inline (e.g. in paragraphs) or in a block as shown. Include whitespace and newlines in blocks.

Please enter Chris (my first name) below. This is a primitive spam prevention technique, and I apologize for the inconvenience.
