It’s been a busy month for me, back from holidays, got my new iPhone, moved into my new house.

Time to organise a PMUG meeting so we can talk about gadgets (yes, iPhones too) and see where the future is going to lead us. I’ll be promoting the event on Facebook tonight, but in case you read it here first details below.

Wednesday 13th August, 2008.

I’m on the look out for a new phone, mine is starting to play up.

See you there!

PMUG Event

Stephen — Thu, 08 May 2008 14:24:17 +0000

Well the first event happened last night and it was a success. Not a huge turn out but that’s to be expected for the first one. We geeked on about gadgets and devices. Here’s a pic of the turn out (not interested in the people, it’s all about the Gadgets!!)

Next month we’ll be having the meetup on the second Wednesday of the month (that makes it the 11th of June) so that we don’t clash with the Port80 or SQL events.

Tell people all about PMUG and we look forward to seeing you at the next meetup. There are quite a few people in Port80 and SQL groups who I dare say are Gadget fans so pass on the word.

Lets grow that pile of gadgets on the table!!

Relaunch Event

Stephen — Tue, 22 Apr 2008 17:06:10 +0000

Our relaunch event is to be held at Fast Eddies, Perth on Wednesday the 7th of May, 2008.

I’ll be setting up a Facebook group over the next few days so RSVP’s can be made so we have an idea on numbers for a booking. Alternatively leave a comment on this post.

Should be a blast. Bring your favourite gadget to show off.

…so he pulled out his mobile phone, touched a button, and the brightly lit screen cut into the inky darkness. “…And there was.”

Welcome to PMUG. The Perth Mobility User Group began a few years ago and for about a year held regular meetings. The focus was on mobile devices and it was good. We had people give presentations on the latest mobile technologies and oooh’d and ahh’d over the latest fan-dangled device.

Then life got in the way. Busy schedules and the pressures of organising presenters came up. It happens.

Good news! PMUG is back!

Ever mindful of the time it takes to run such a user group we discussed what it was we wanted from PMUG. We just want to meet up regular and geek on about mobile devices. We’ve decided upon an informal structure this time. We won’t be organising formal presentations, we’ll just be meeting up somewhere social and talk gadgets with fellow gadget-heads. Sounds good right?!

More details to follow on our PMUG relaunch event.
