We'll have complimentary wifi, drinks, and snacks with room for the first 40 people that sign up. Thanks DrKW!
[UPDATE:] If you're having trouble logging in, maybe try going to Ross Mayfield's page here and following the links to the London bit.
[TUESDAY UPDATE:] About to head for London. Back home at the weekend. Will be online while I'm there, of course.

Posted by: lee wilkins at September 5, 2005 8:12 PMJust signed you in, Lee. You can relax.
Posted by: hugh macleod at September 5, 2005 8:17 PMNot sure if I can go yet, but how do I sign up so I can log in to the wiki page and see if it's full yet?
Am I missing something?
Posted by: Paul Farnell at September 5, 2005 10:34 PMIs it not time to end your wiki ways? I had to ask at least once, Hugh.

Posted by: Jack at September 6, 2005 3:32 AMwhere is the wiki?~
Posted by: james governor at September 6, 2005 11:28 AMhi there. i just stumbled across your blog. i took pleasure in the way you artfully describe life, i love the simplicity, the bitterness and the integrity of your style, its quite brilliant.
Posted by: Valkyrie at September 6, 2005 11:58 AMwoo, i know this is offtopic, but i have to say this
uhg wait, i just saw that the last post says about the same thing as i was about to say
well, not really
but let me put it like this, i didn't read any of your postcards (no javascript or whatsoever),
but your text about "how to be more successful at art blah blah" is really impressive
you've hit the spot, there was no point that i disagreed to
and there were quite a few which i just thought "wow" of
well, anyways, i suppose you get a lot of those posts per day
but i suppose there was noone who looked for "happiness" on google out of boredom xD
i hope there'll be a post such as this when i am successful (and i sure as hell will be)
thanks for creating this, it's an impressive collection of thoughts
Posted by: diab0l at September 6, 2005 5:21 PMHi Hugh,
Thanks for writing about our new weblog! The comments have been closed for that entry so I am posting here. Love your sketches. Any chance you have any of pregnant women so we can post one on our blog?
Posted by: Baukjen at September 7, 2005 2:35 PMWhat's with the disorganized Wiki Wednesdays? In my city (Phoenix) there isn't a time or place listed! Several other cities are the same way. It shouldn't be promoted if it isn't going to be run. What a trust-breaker....
Posted by: Rhet at September 7, 2005 7:59 PM"Trust Breaker"? How very "buzzword" of you. Next, I suppose you're going to tell me how "damaging for the conversation" it is?
The thing about wiki-generated events, is that they're self-organising. If they didn't organise in Phoenix (or wherever) it's because the good people of Phoenix decided they didn't want to organise anything, for whatever reason. And NOT because Ross was up to something squirly.
You could have organised something, and you chose not to. Your responsibility.
