The next North Shore Web Geek Meetup is happening this Thursday night, April 17, in Newburyport, MA.
Here are the details:
Date: Thursday, April 17, 2008
Place: The Grog (see map)
Start: ~6-7pm
Ends: ~9-10pm
See the Facebook group or Upcoming page.
By the way, at this meeting we’ll be setting the date for the next one, so that we can get the word out as early as possible.
Travel tips:
- By Car: Downtown Newburyport is ~3 miles off of Interstate 95, so it’s very easy to find and fast to get into/out of by car. (this ain’t the city)
- Commuter Rail: Newburyport is at the end of the commuter rail…if we have any folks coming on the 5:36 or the 6:15 we’ll do a pick up (the train station is about a mile away from the pub) (commuter rail schedule)
If you have any questions/comments/concerns, feel free to contact me.

WHAT IS SOCIAL DESIGN?
Social design is design that focuses on the social lives of users. It deals with the activities, behaviors, and motivations of people who work and play together through software interfaces. It is built on the observation that many of the decisions we make are greatly affected by those we surround ourselves with in our social lives: our family, friends, and colleagues. Exploring our motivations and how to design interfaces to support them is what the Bokardo blog is all about.
