LondonSEO Summer BBQ Party

2008 July 25
by Rob Kerry

It’s time for another LondonSEO and not even the ridiculous heat in our beloved capital can stop us! Although most of us geeks prefer to shy away for the sun and direct sunlight, some people bizarrely enjoy being out in the heat and beaming rays. Sacrificing pub nostalgia this August, we’ll be holding LondonSEO in the courtyard of Vibe Bar on Brick Lane. Not only will there be outdoor air conditioning in the cordoned off courtyard, we’ll also have a South African BBQ available to those who get the munchies.

Media CentrixI’m pleased to announce Media Centrix as this month’s sponsor, who have kindly offered to put their card behind the bar for beers. Media Centrix specialise in recruitment for the online marketing industry. If you’re actively looking to move jobs or just interested in what’s out there, please have a chat to one of the people from Media Centrix who will be attending the event. If you’re recruiting, Media Centrix can also help you find the right people.

    Missed the last one, but this one sounds like fun. Why don’t you approach all the Recruiters spamming the Facebook group to sponsor the event? Have you also tried Web Analytics companies? This crowd should provide good value for them to sponsor the event.

    What type of pies? How welcome are new peps?

    Is this meet and greet for existing LondonSEO’ers or are newbies welcome along too? My office is just upstairs from the bar!

    Tim – if you are an SEO in London… you already ARE a LondonSEOer! They’re really not proud if they let the likes of me in.

    Well I was going to be climbing Mount Everest that day. But since it’s you guys…

  16. 2008 August 13

    is it still on?

  17. 2008 August 13

    It is indeed, we also have a sponsor and I’ll update this post with their details shortly.

  18. 2008 August 13

    well done donkey

  19. 2008 August 13

    It’s a bit wet…

    There will be a *SMALL* number of choccie cupcakes and chocolates tonight so if you’re new, find the SEO Chick in the t-shirt with the plate and grab a celebratory yummy in honour of LisaD and JonM getting engaged!

    Wish them both luck as well (not with your mouth full – that’s rude :-D )

    Shit !!! I missed it :(
    When is the next meeting??
    ciau :-)

    What a brilliant (if chilly) time.

    Thanks to EGM for organising. You rock Rob!

    If you are the woman who was talking to me while I was setting up and trying to find Lisa and had a possibly French accent and were wearing a white dress shirt, sorry I didn’t give you a card. Remember to pop yourself on the mailing list here. I blog over at SEO Chicks (click my name) and if you email me, I’ll ping you some other women in tech things I am aware of.

    To the guy who took the cupcakes before the happy couple arrived for whom they were intended to celebrate the nuptuals of – naughty naughty. No more cake for LondonSEO.
