upcoming uk trip

| 13 Comments

I'll be going to the UK in a few weeks--I leave Seattle on Friday 7/29, and return on Sunday 8/7. Flying into London, then hopping a train to Oxford, where I'll be presenting my NSF grant research at Crossing Cultures, Changing Lives: Integrating Research on Girls' Choices of IT Careers. That lasts through August 3rd, after which I'll head back to London for several days.

While I'm there, I'm really hoping for a blogger meetup of some kind. There are a lot of people "across the pond" whom I'd love to meet (or see again)--Suw Charman, Tom Coates, Gary Turner, Cory Doctorow, Hugh Macleod, and others.

Another stop will (probably) be the Microsoft Research office in Cambridge.

I'm excited about the trip (and happy that I was able to find a direct flight from Seattle to London!).

Hi Liz,

When in Oxford also be sure to contact Piers Young, of http://blog.monkeymagic.net/ . If you liked talking to Lilia in Seattle then, you'll sure like talking to Piers as well.

Have a good trip!

I believe Tom Reynolds, Random Acts of Reality co-ordinates the London Bloggers Meet Up.

Shame I'm flying across to MA, USA on the 30/7, so I am unable to attend any blogger meet up. Would have liked to have met you.

Hope you are all settling down in Seattle now.

Ooh! I hope we can manage to meet up. I'll be probably in Arundel (near Brighton) at that time, so will be able to pop into London at the same time you are there. The only fly in the ointment is that I am going to Paris early in August, but I'll sort that out closer to the time. Feel free to drop me a line with your plans and we'll sort something out!

Liz,

Would love to meet up if we can. I'll co-ordinate, triangulate, motivate, actuate, relocate and participate in whatever's happening nearer the time.

drop me an e-mail- i'm in london all the time...

;-)

Liz,
It was wonderful meeting you at the Blog-Luck on Sunday. Have a great trip and take lots of pictures.

Hi Liz,

Would love to join in any London meet-up that happens, although have some travel myself in some of that time.

Liz,
My sister & her British family will be arriving here on 7/30 - maybe you'll pass each other in Heathrow:) How did EVER get a direct flight! Very impressive. Have a great trip & Cheers!

Hi Liz = Was reading this and your other posts about new employee orientation at M/S. I wanted to email you and realize I only have your RIT address -- this still the right one? Can you email me if you get a minute? Loved these posts about being in a new place and coat hangers and all.

Hi UK folks, glad you're all well and ready to show Liz a good time ... maybe TOO good a time?

Watch out girl!
