Buzztouch Meeting at Oxford, UK

Hi members! I saw that in a few weeks time, there is going to be a meeting in Minnesota for buzztouch members there. That got me thinking, what if I could help create a meeting in the UK. Well, a few emails with David, and it looks like its going ahead. It would be a great opportunity to involve the UK a bit more with buzztouch. I dont know how many Brits are out and about in Buzztouch, but there must be a fair few of you. It would just be a chance to get to know each other and share ideas we may have about our apps. And who knows, this could become a regualar. I have fixed the location at Oxford, because this is quite central and is very easy to get to from London and Birmingham. I havent got any dates arranged yet but once interest starts building, I'll fix a date that hopefully everyone will be happy about. Please, freely post here or message me if you're interested or if any thoughts pop into your head.

Oxford is a very nice place, but I agree that Birmingham and London are both great places! Of course, Oxford is only about 45 - 60 mins train ride away from both the places.

I will definitely attend the UK venue.1- as I am in the UK. 2- better image than rioting, 3- the olympics are over and I did not win a medal in the 100m, 4 - to meet BT gang in a non stalker way. Fantastic Idea (the fact that I run 100m at approximately 59 seconds should be deduced by 1 second for each pound of weight, and year older I am than Mr Bolt)

I'm in the UK and keen to learn more and discuss projects, I'm in the Sheffield area so only a train ride away. I think the UK need to be more involved with buzztouch.

Hi David, I am trying to organise a venue and a date right now. I'll post a meetup.com URL when I have organised everything. I will also post the deatils here. I am quite sure about its location, its just organising a date. I'm not certain about the venue, but its quite a high chance. What I'll try to do is list the available dates and see what ones you can attend to.

I will be in Reading for a week from this weekend ... It would be fun to take the train to Oxford. I'm going to a trade show in London on Monday, but hopefully this meet up wont be too far off on the calendar. The weather turned today. I made my iOS Map App last April. Got the Apple Developers thing, and got the App on my iPhone. Works well. Then in July I went to make a second one, but failed. In April I tried to start the process of making the Android version, but Eclipse did not install. Tried again over the weekend and failed. Being a Mac user, it is tough following windows-esque instructions which are always backwards and upside down, but nothing is matching up. I know most others here install Eclipse on a OSX Emulator on Windows, but I'm a pure Mac. I have my Amazon developers stuff, still not sure that I need BuzzTouch with Amazon. I'm thinking with the market share Android has, I shouldn't put myself thru the pain others here are describing getting their apps NOT approved with iTunes. I'm thinking meeting in a group would be fun. I probably need to have someone help me since now I'm traveling around, often only having my iPad in WiFi hotspots. I don't need my desktop to use my App but I can't code on my iPad.

Right. I've organised things to the point where I have got a list of dates and that kind of stuff. I have organised a location for the meeting. It's called 'The Hub' and it's very easy to find and it is has good rooms to use. I have got some dates available for the room. I'll have to book it soon so please be quick. All of the meetings are at 16:30 (4:30pm). Monday 17th September Wednesday 19th September Wednesday 26th September I think the Monday one would be of too short notice, so it only really leaves the two Wednesdays. It's your choice. I don't mind.

The 17th I'm in London for a trade show. The 26th I might be going back to Europe if I can't find more affordable housing In the UK - with the climbing exchange rate. How long is the meeting? Us old people eat dinner at 5pm. Stretch to 6pm. Or is it a dinner meeting? Or is it a Pub with good pub food?

Hi guys, There is a nice cafe down from the meeting room, which you are very welcome to bring up to the meeting. I can ask for a later date in the first week of October. If that is better, please post. Also would an earlier time like 16:00 or 15:45 be more convienient. I will book the room in for 2 hours, but I think it'll be a lot less. Thanks,

Hi, I have settled on a great place to meet up. It's right in the central of Oxford and has a cafe and restaurant downstairs. The venue is called 'The Oxford Hub'. I've seen the room and I think it'll be good for the job! The address is 16-17 Turl Street Oxford OX1 3DH Its upstairs from the Turl Street Kitchen, however, I'll be waiting outside to greet you all. If you're coming from the Train Station, just walk up towards the city. There will probably be a sign. There is no need to take the bus, because it's only a ten minute walk. Once you get to the city, please go up Broad Street, which should be straight on. You'll pass an Apple Shop (not an official one), but once you get to Blackwells Music Shop, it's right up that street (Turl Street). These directions are probably useless but if you get stuck please give me a call. My number for you is 07531 425517. Please only contact me on the day after 15:00. If you have any questions, please use this thread instead of giving me a text.

Hi guys, I just want a quick response so I can carry out the booking of the room. Is everybody happy about the 26th September at 16:30. I can ask for 16:00 is you wish. Is that date good with everybody (@Ashy - I'll find an alternative to keep you in the meet-up)! I posted the address in the previous post. If I receive no response, I'll book it in for Wednesday 26th September - 16:30.

Ok. Hi guys. I could only book it in for hours, so the time slot we were given was 16:00 to 18:00. There is WiFi there, so I'll make sure that when you arrive, you'll have the WiFi handy. I will be there at 16:00, but if you can only arrive at 16:30, that's also fine. Preferably, I would like the meeting to start at 16:00, so we have more time, but please don't feel any pressure to be there by then. I don't mind if you roll in a between 16:00 and 16:30. You're very welcome to bring in your computer. Hopefully, I'll have a surprise during the meeting. I won't give it away, so you'd better be there. I gave my number above, so if you need to contact me during the day, I'll be available. Please only contact me after 15:00. Before then, just give me a text, because I won't be able to answer. I hope to see you there. Thanks very much,

It was great to see you guys in Oxford. We had a modest chat amongst the three of us. We even had David come along from Skype. Maybe next time, we can get a few more members, but it was really nice to see you Peter (petersmall), and Mike (krumike). I tried to contact Ashy, but the Internet wouldn't connect, so that was a bit of a shame, but still, it was great! We had a nice chat discussing issues and with David all the way from California! I really look forward to seeing you guys again and of course, anyone is welcome to join. God knows when the next meet up will be, but it won't be for a few weeks now. Thanks to the two who came and especially to David who took time out in the early morning (California time) to speak with us.

Hi fellow users of Buzztouch, I'm organising those meetups again! This will be the first one of 2013, and only the fourth one of all. I have all the others very enjoyable. Hopefully I'll gather together a few more people because numbers are low currently. If you can make it, please do make a special effort because it'll make the meetup even better! So I have a few dates for you to decide for our next meeting. There's a doodle link below, and I would prefer it if you used that, but you can also just reply to this thread as well. Doodle Poll: http://doodle.com/nnqy7mzri8r2efca Here are the available dates anyway: - Monday 18th February - 16:00 - Tuesday 19th February - 16:00 - Wednesday 20th February - 16:00 - Monday 25th February - 16:00 - Tuesday 26th February - 16:00 - Wednesday 27th February - 16:00 Also, if you're somewhere else in the world, I can invite a few on a Google Hangouts event, or you can watch it as a live stream off YouTube. If you want to view recordings of our old meetups, and find out more, please visit this site I've made: http://www.buzztouchoxford.com Drop me an email anytime if you wish as well: [email protected]

The decision poll has now ended and I have picked a date and time. I was meant to tell you this one week ago, so I do apologise if this is late notice. Here are the full details: Date: Tuesday 7th May 2013 Time: 16:00 (4PM) until 18:00 (6PM) [we always spill over by about fifteen minutes] Location: Berlitz Language Centre Oxford 131 High Street Oxford OX1 4DH (near Carfax tower - opposite Covered Market - down alley to a pub named "Chequers") Please do try and make the trip to Oxford. Over the last few meets, it has been very good and I have certainly learnt much from it. It's all free and everyone is welcome (member or non-member). I will be covering this on Google Hangouts, however, I will only invite people who can't attend this meet, due to being long distances away. Google Hangouts is not an alternative to attending the meet. I really do look forward to seeing as much of you there. As I said before, please try and make the meet, because it makes it all the better! Please keep my contact details, so if you need to find us, then you know who to contact: Thomas Boyd +44 (0) 7531 425 517 [email protected]

Hi all, I know it's too early to think of Christmas right now, but I'm planning the next Buzztouch meetup which will be the last of the year. There is a shortage of people wanting to attend this one, so I would be good if you could attend too, if possible. So it's the usual drill, I'll tell you what the details are: Location: Berlitz Langauge Centre 131 High Street Oxford OX1 4DH (same as BuzzDay) Date + Time: Thursday 28th November 16:00 - 18:00 (with a pub stop) So I hope to quickly recap over BuzzDay and have a nice social gathering. The more people we get, the less we have to hear about David's new yacht club in London. Hope to see you there, Thomas Boyd Annandale Apps http://www.buzztouchoxford.com

Hi all, I'm sure you know the regular Oxford meetups. If you don't, it is a great way to share knowledge, problems and issues with each other. It's like the forums but extended into reality. I have had tremendous fun over the last year doing this and I hope my attendees have also had fun too. I have learnt tonnes of new knowledge, and I'm not exactly a beginner. Everyone is welcome to attend, and its free of charge. Even the tea and coffee is free! If you're a guest, member, beginner or expert, you are all welcome to come along. Often I have learnt a lot from beginners, because I get fresh ideas. I have organised a meeting on the last Thursday of the month. So here are the next three dates: 30th January 2014 27th February 2014 27th March 2014 16:00 until 18:00 However we do tend to add some extra time with a pub stop after the meeting. I won't confirm dates beyond this, however it gives you plenty of notice for upcoming meetings. Here's the venue location: Berlitz Language Centre 131 High Street Oxford OX1 4DH During the next meetup (Jan), I will be announcing some more information on the big autumn event. I hope to see you attending! Thomas Boyd Buzztouch Oxford organiser http://www.buzztouchoxford.com PS. If you're further north of Oxford, I will be visiting Birmingham and Edinburgh shortly. Anyone want to meet there? However these will be one-off meetings, and not regular.
