WTF? The announcement came 2 days before the event… As web developers we should be able to communicate dates of events in good time before the actual event starts…

What can we do to solve this? An RSS feed for WSG UK? Ideas on web-postcards please…

I’m not moaning, I am just sad I missed a good meet-up.

Cheers,
Rich
