As part of the latest round of ad-hoc meet-ups in Dublin (Ireland) .. we decided to run another Blogger-Twitter-Whatever (BTW) meetup.
The plan is to meet in the The Church Bar (Dublin) at 7pm on Thursday 29th July. The church bar is located on Mary street. Mary street is the street that connects Henry Street with Capel street.
The event is free to attend.
We have space for up to 130 people this time round, so it would be great if you could invite some friends to register.
more the merrier! There will be finger food and a special on drinks. Id really appreciate if everyone could give this one a big push!!
The guys over at Blacknight have offered to sponsor some drinks and our venue The Church have offered to top up the tab with some dosh! So free food and some free drinks .. what more can you ask for!

I thought it might be nice to give blacknight a plug.. so check out their offers over at http://domainoffers.me. If you are a new or existing customer you can save 20% on renewals and they have a ton of other offers on domain names. Blacknight for the win!
Waiting List

It’s been a while since my last blog post. Some of you may or may not have know but back in April I left self employment for the lure of a permanent role. The new job consumed most of my time so I didn’t really feel like tuning in to social media when I clocked off. The job had a big title but had a lot of risk attached. Regrettably after 3 months, I decided the role wasn’t for me. My whole work life balance was a bit out of whack!
Resilient as ever, I decided to jump back on the self employment horse and get stuck in. The last week has been quite intense. I’ve been spreading the word that I’m back and Ive been blown away with the support. It’s like I never left! It blows my mind, how supportive the community is in Ireland. Everyone just seems to look out for one another and pick each other up when we fall. Its a really refreshing!
So whats coming next?
Well I’m back doing freelance web development, SEO and social media engagement. I’m actively looking for new and exciting projects. Let me know if you have something in mind. Email hello@jasonroe.me or give me a call on +353 (0)1 485 36 49 Read the rest of this entry »

What is BTW?
BTW stands for Blogger – Twitter – Whatever .. The first BTW meet-up was held on November 2008. The aim of the meet-up is to open up our “niche web community” to a wider audience. BTW is an informal gather of people who are interested in (but not limited to) bloging, social media and the web. There is no agenda or rules .. people turn up, enjoy themselves and meet new faces.
