So it’s finally happened: There’s going to be a Boston JavaScript Meetup tonight (7pm, January 9th, 2008 – Central Square). I plan on going – and I hope everyone will be able to make it (even if it is on super-short notice).
I was getting caught up on my email late last night and noticed the notification concerning the new group. I panicked as I thought I had missed the meetup – thankfully it was still to come (which is what I get for looking at the date after midnight). I plan on bringing a couple copies of my book to hand out, if anyone is interested.
Interestingly, it’s founder Robert Schultz, is the creator of the incredibly-cool World of Solitaire site. It’s, definitely, one of the better pure-JavaScript games on the web and deserves much of the praise that it has received.
I’m hoping that there will be more JavaScript meetups in the upcoming months. Hope to see everyone there!

Bummer. I just saw the listing on meetup.com the other day. I saved it to del.icio.us even. Unfortunately, I hadn’t found the time to go back and check in since that first visit. And here it is happening.
Next time.
