Many thanks to Andreas Rindler and BearingPoint (http://www.bearingpoint.com) who will be providing the venue and refreshments. The venue will be BearingPoints's City of London offices (Warwick Court, 5 Paternoster Square London, EC4M 7BP) This is the location on Google - nearest tube is St. Paul's. The offices are on the third floor.
We aim for people to arrive around 18:15 for a 19:00 formal start.
Please make sure you book your name below so a name badge can be prepared, and if you have any difficulties on the night you can call David Terrar on o7715 159423 or Andreas Rindler on 07917 553 262.
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: http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=2355889529
We will be looking for venues and sponsors for the subsequent events. Please contact David Terrar 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. Particular items we know will be covered:
We're thinking of adding further Open Discussions in to the agenda. Any suggestions for a topic or title:

| 7:05 | The Rise of British TiddlyWikiCom (including a funky wiki-making-phones-ring thing) - Jeremy Ruston and friends |
| 7:35 | Discussions - Closed versus Open - Is it feasible or practical to have some wiki pages closed or certified, and other pages that are open, community generated, work in progress |
| 8:00 | 5 minute presentations + up to 5 minutes for subsequent questions, probably in the sequence of registration. Hopefully we won't have quite as many people who want to speak as last time, but we will be more strict with the clock this time around. |
| 9:00 | Close of of presentations - time for discussion and more chat |
To be confirmed, but we'll have a projector, PC connected to the Internet, and hopefully the ability to hook up your own PC or Mac.

When you think about it, our previous labelling format " Attendee ( ) / speaker ( ) / listener ( ) " is a bit odd because... Why are you on the list if you are not attending? and why are you attending if you are not listening?? What we actually should label is: who is definitely planning to speak? who is possibly thinking about speaking? who is willing to speak? who is just there to listen? -- Harry Wood - 7th June 2007
We inherited an approach from the earlier wikis which was a bit ilogical but worked. Harry's suggestion is much clearer. Thanks! -- David Terrar on Jun 7 7:33am
