I am delighted to announce that the next London Wiki Wednesday will combine with a number of other meetups to become the first meeting of the Network of Networks. This is intended to be a regular, quarterly meeting connecting together London and South East based meetups like LWW, Mobile Mondays, Creative Coffee Club, Tuttle Club/London Social Media Cafe, London Girl Geek Dinners and any others who want to join us. The plan is to meet regularly, building up to a major conference sometime in 2009.
For the first meeting we have a great sponsor NESTA (the National Endowment for Science, Technology and the Arts), at their offices (details below). It will be on Thursday 27 November. As well as being on a non-Wednesday, we will be starting a little earlier at 16:00 until 20:00. This meeting is going to be something special. Please sign up on the wiki as usual, and look out for full details and the agenda.

London Wiki Wednesdays now has an easy to remember URL (which links to all of the wiki pages here), and a new Ning social network that you can contribute to. LondonWikiWednesdays.com links to this page, will always have the details of the next meeting, as well as a forum, photos, blog feeds, videos and a variety of wiki resources and links.
We also have a group you can join on Facebook and a London Wiki Wednesday FriendFeed room**
For the next meetings we will be trying to get Skype and Google lined as sponsors. However, please contact David Terrar by mail or skype if you are interested.
Anyone who attends can do a 5 minute show and tell on how they are using wiki and social media technology, but feel free to just come along and listen if you don't fancy presenting. We've got a bit lax at the last two meetings, but the 5 minute rule will be strictly adhered to from now on, to allow for more chat and networking time after the formal part of the session.
It would be good to have an Open Discussions in the agenda. Any suggestions for a topic or title:
