Tell HN: TVICITV tech dinner in San Francisco Thursday 1 July 2010

Hi, I'm Hacker News reader follower, you may recognise me from such YC Application Video blooper reels as http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m0ouOkNeBS4 and...well, probably that's it... Nearly five years ago I started a monthly tech dinner group in Christchurch, New Zealand inspired by the short time I had spent in Silicon Valley. It was introduced with the now standard spiel: The best thing about Silicon Valley is the people and the casual conversations that lead to bigger things. These often happen in Chinese restaurants. Christchurch has Chinese restaurants and it has techy people so why not bring the two together? Given that it was started in Christchurch and inspired by the Valley it seemed essential to name it The Valley in Christchurch. Five years later and we still meet every month to eat food and talk tech. Within the last year or so two of our attendees have moved to Silicon Valley and I happen to be visiting in July and early August so it was clear what had to be done... Yes, it's the inaugural meet of The Valley In Christchurch In The Valley (TVICITV)! What: The Valley In Christchurch In The Valley (TVICITV) tech dinner When: 7:00pm Thursday 1 July 2010 Where: The Four Seas Restaurant 731 Grant Avenue, San Francisco You don't have to have been to a TVIC meeting to attend TVICITV--all are welcome: Kiwis, locals and other imports. (Due to the "We're friends when in the other hemisphere" rule Aussies are welcome too. :) ) For booking purposes it would be handy if you could RSVP to tvicitv@nztech.org Full details: <http://nztech.org/tvicitv/> Eat food. Talk tech. Now with an accent. Hope to see you there!
