The whole groopit team had the pleasure of attending Refresh Edinburgh yesterday, an informal event for the web development community in and around Edinburgh. The setting turned out to be how we'd pictured our dream office one day - wooden floors and wacky play-things everywhere, and the atmosphere was just right for the healthy banter and discussion we'd all come for.
There were some interesting talks, a few of which really did a good job of passing on some well-learned and transferable lessons (including James and Alex from GoogleSightseeing.com and Meri Williams on project management for busy geeks, amongst others). On the other hand, some talks were shameless plugs to get people to sign up to the speaker's website. Well, actually, that was just our talk. But we hope people enjoyed our presentation and the rubber duck throwing. It was wonderful to get some positive comments and suggestions for important points to think about from the people there. We're currently looking to build a community of understanding early users and we're hoping some of the folk who heard us at Refresh will help us out there. We just need to think of something to do with the left over ducks...
All credit to Matt and John for organising the thing, we're all looking forward to loads more Refresh events in the future.
