A slow start this morning, missed the early chat with @voirol - Tom & @AndrewBlanda who had meeting today and couldn't make it.
After 9am people started rolling in and by 10am we were in full swing.

Guestbook for today

@thelatteguy - Tony(me), @YllaWright - Ylla, @CallanPark - Katherine, @Headwellred - Melinda, @aDB - Matthew,  @hollingsworth - Tony,  @_Shelbyville - Michelle, @viveka - Viveka

Things that came up that I can remember hearing or saying:

Matthew -  @aDB discussed barcamp http://www.barcampsydney.org/ which sounds amazing. Organise discussion groups on the fly and kid/family friendly I love it. Apparently the one coming up in Canbera will be a good one http://barcamp.org/BarCampCanberra
We also got to meet the lovely Melinda, Matthew wife. Havng some very cool talents that you have to come to a #wscm to learn about.

Ylla @YllaWright mentioned the The Food Safari show by Maev O'Mara on SBS http://www.sbs.com.au/food/foodsafari

Tony H - @hollingsworth shared a great tip for ravioli he was given recently. Just fry some Sage(herb) with a good qaulity butter and then add the ravioli. Making me hungry just typing this.
Tony also mentioned a new tablet PC called a JooJoo http://www.engadget.com/2009/12/08/joojoo-tablet-hands-on-video/ which seems to be the crunchpad that techcrunch was unable to release because their business partner got greedy.
Tony also taked about the book Outliers http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Outliers_(book) an intertesting look into how being born at the right time of year affects sporting pursiots and that to become amazing in an area of endeavor don't need to be a genius or super talented you really need to do the endeavour for 10,000 hours to become amazing at it.

Michelle - @_Shelbyville is running a Bookbinding class on Sunday 13 December from 1-4pm for $55 including materials, leather, paper, bookbinding thread etc. Location is Erskinville Public School. That is fantastic value in my opinion.
email Michelle: michelle at shelbyville dot com dot au
