Name: Girl Geek Dinners
Sites: girlgeekdinners.com
Self-description: "Background

The Girl Geek Dinners were founded on the 16th August 2005 as a result of one girl geek who got annoyed and frustrated about being one of the only females attending technical events. She was tired of being assumed to be marketing, tired of constantly having to prove herself and decided that she just wanted a change and to be treated just the same as any other geek out there, gender and age aside. After all to be geeky is to be intelligent, have passion for a subject and to know that subject in depth. It’s not at all about being better than others, or about gender, race, religion or anything else. Those things just detract from the real fun stuff, the technology, the innovation and the spread of new ideas.

So what did this geeky girl do to change the world of geeks and girl geeks everywhere… well she got in touch with a few well known bloggers, posted online about her idea of getting geeks to educate one another over dinner and then arranged the first girl geek dinner event with a little help from her friends. The first event had 35 people at it all from London and the surrounding area, shortly after people started to hear about the events and companies started sponsoring them to cover the food and drinks cost.

Then they started popping up in other UK cities as she trained others up in how to run the events, spreading the formula for them… so they then started popping up in Europe… and shortly after that over in Canada… Now they are starting to pop up in New Zealand and Australia. Who knows where will be next

Past Events

Where have the past events been, what is the format and why?

If we start with London, the birth home for the girl geek dinners, they started their life at the Texas Embassy over in Trafalgar Square, and soon decided to move about a bit and have since been found in bars such as Balls Brothers and offices such as Google, Saatchi & Saatchi and Skype.

The format of the events is usually an informal, buffet dinner style with finger foods and wine as well as soft drinks for those who are driving. We have a speaker or three on a subject of choice either based on a technical subject area or business area, or even on women and tech issues (such as mentoring). The events are varied and the reach vast.

We keep the events informal and outside of lecture theatres or offices where possible solely to take the women (and the men… oh yes men are allowed to come, however they must have an invitation from a female attending the event!) into an informal and relaxed environment where they feel comfortable talking and interacting. We limit the number of male attendees by putting the balance of men to women in the hands of the attendees. This means that there can be a 50:50 split or anything up to that on the male side. Generally the more men in attendance, the more the dynamics of the event change. It is a learning experience for both the men and the women as men in tech aren’t used to interacting with women in tech on a technical level. Technical women are also not used to being technical with other women either… it’s a learning curve on all sides.

Total Number of Girl Geek Dinner Groups: 60 (90 including those starting out at the moment)

Estimated Members: 25,000 – 45,000

Countries: 21 (soon to be 32)"

Name: (SoCal) Code Camp
Sites: www.socalcodecamp.com, Twitter Tag #SoCalCodeCamp, Flickr tag 'socalcodecamp', FaceBook SoCal Code Camp Group, FaceBook SoCal Code Camp Page
Self-description: "The Code Camp Manifesto

The original Code Camp was a conglomeration of ideas by many different people across the development community. The idea was simple provide an off hour forum for the development community to speak and share ideas for them to come and enjoy. The results have been astounding. I am happy to report that they are being planned across many different cities.
The question is what makes a Code Camp?

The answer is actually simple. In order to use the official Code Camp name and banner follow these simple protocols.
By and For the Developer Community

Code Camps are about the developer community at large. They are meant to be a place for developers to come and learn from their peers. Topics are always based on community interest and never determined by anyone other than the community.
Always Free

Code Camps are always free for attendees.
Community Developed Material

The success of the Code Camps is that they are based on community content. All content that is delivered is original. All presentation content must be provided completely (including code) without any restriction. If you have content you don't want to share or provide to attendees then the Code Camp is not the place for you.
No Fluff only Code

Code Camps are about showing the code. Refer to rule #1 if you have any questions on this.
Community Ownership

The most important element of the Code Camp is always the developer community. All are welcome to attend and speak and do so without expectation of payment or any other compensation other than their participation in the community.
Never occur during work hours

We need to understand that many times people can't leave work for a day or two to attend training or even seminars. The beauty of the Code Camp is that they always occur on weekends."

Self-description: "BarCamp is an ad-hoc un-conference born from the desire for people to share and learn in an open environment. It is an intense event with discussions, demos and interaction from attendees.

All attendees must give a demo, a session, or help with one. All presentions are scheduled the day they happen. Prepare in advance, but come early to get a slot on the wall.

Presenters are responsible for making sure that notes/slides/audio/video of their presentations are published on the web for the benefit of all and those who can’t be present.

Anyone with something to contribute or with the desire to learn is welcome and invited to join."

Name: dorkbot
Sites: dorkbot.org, dorkbot.org/dorkbotsocal, SoCal Announcement List, SoCal Facebook Group
Self-description: "What is dorkbot, exactly?: Each dorkbot is different and is driven by the needs and interests of people in the local community. But generally, the main goals of dorkbot are: to create an informal, friendly environment in which people can talk about the work they're doing and to foster discussion about that work; to help bring together people from different backgrounds who are interested in similar things; to give us all an opportunity to see the strange things our neighbors are doing with electricity. dorkbot isn't really a forum for formal artist talks or lectures, but rather a chance for diverse people to have friendly conversations about interesting ideas.

The organizers of Pixelache 2008 asked Douglas to talk about dorkbot's "organisational strategy". Here's what he had to say.

Frequency: How often will you hold meetings? Some dorkbots have meetings every month, others just a few times a year. It's a lot of work putting the meetings together, and in smaller cities is can be difficult to schedule enough speakers. You don't want to burn out!

Locale: If you are in a smaller city or town, you might want to consider collaborating with people in other nearby cities/towns. Maybe the dorkbot meeting can travel to a different location each month, or maybe you can all pool your resources for a couple long-form meetings each season.

Venue: Is there a place to hold the meetings? It can be very convenient to have the meetings in the same place each time. Often an art gallery or performance space will be willing to donate their facilities for the occassional meeting. If you know someone connected to a university you may be able to get a space through them. It doesn't have to be a fancy space!

Equipment: Do you have access to presentation equipment? At the least you'll probably need a video projector, a small sound system, and a network connection. A laptop computer can also make things easier on the presenters. As with the venue, it's best if you can use the same equipment at each meeting. It can be very stressful trying to track down a video projector the day of a dorkbot meeting! Often the venue you use will have A/V equipment you can borrow.

$$$: dorkbot is a non-$-oriented organization. dorkbot meetings are generally free events, so you need to be careful about spending lots of money to produce them! Several dorkbots sell beer and/or food at the meetings to help cover their costs. Make sure you talk to the venue before selling anything. dorkbot.org donates web space, email lists, etc. to the local dorkbots, so there is no administrative cost associated with setting up a new dorkbot.

Meeting Format: dorkbot meetings are rather informal. There are usually two or three presentations (about 20-30 minutes each) per meeting and sometimes very short "lightening" presentations from audience members. The specific format is up to each organizer to decide. You'll probably have to play with your format for a few meetings until you find something that works well in your context. One thing to keep in mind is that the dorkbot format works best for informal, conversational presentations on a particular work or topic, rather than formal artist talks or lectures on a body of work. 30 minutes isn't much time, so focused presentations work best.

Sites: www.meateatersball.org, linkedin.com/groups?gid=1849455
Self-description: This site doesn't have much on it as far as description except for how many people showed up previous years. "Once a year the who's who of the finance, entertainment and "C" level executives gather for a great night of Bar B Q, martinis and networking. Live music, great sights and the best Bar B Q from Woody's (LeafEaters will eat too)." (from the LinkedIn group)

Here's some 3rd party commentary on it:
On May 7, 2009, more than 800 C-Level executives and financial investors will gather at 2000 Avenue of the Stars, in Century City, for the Fourth Annual MeatEaters Ball – an exclusive night of networking, charity, dancing, deal-making…and tasty southern barbecue.

Confirmed event attendees represent such upper-echelon firms and companies as Google, Square 1 Bank, the Rubicon Project, Endgame Entertainment, SONY, Idealab, IBM, Skyline Music Publishing, and hundreds more, such as investors GRP Partners, Redpoint, Stone Canyon and Leonard Green Partners, to name just a few.

Frank Mottek, host of KNX 1070 Newsradio’s popular Southern California show, “KNX Business Hour”, has referred to the MeatEaters Ball as “…the best networking event of the year.” The Ball has been referenced as the replacement for the now defunct “Predator’s Ball” – an annual event once hosted by Drexel’s Michael Milken, at the Beverly Hills Hotel. And although the location and theme of the event may have changed, the target audience of the events remains the same.

“This is a once-per-year chance at some of the best targeted networking in the nation,” said MeatEaters Ball founder, Robert K. Whyte. “We attract the who’s who from the financial and entrepreneurial worlds… players from equity, hedge funds, lending and debt from all over the country, plus top C-Level executives from the best companies that want to rub shoulders with people who can write checks.”

...and...

The 4th Annual MeatEaters Ball took place on Thursday May 7th at 2000 Avenue of the Stars in Century City. For the first time, this years event will be donating to two separate charites, The Boys & Girls Clubs of Santa Monica and The BizWorld Foundation. This incredible night of fundraising included networking, dancing, deal-making and a tasty selection of southern barbecue. This year was over-the-top, adding a Red Carpet arrival for photo opportunities. Frank Mottek, host of "KNX Business Hour", refers to the MeatEaters Ball as "The best networking event of the year."

It was an unusually beautiful and warm spring evening, with a bright full moon shining down on over 1,000 hungry patrons that turned out for the evnt. The delicious and sumptuous meat feast, was once again provided by the famous Los Angeles eatery, Woody's Bar-B-Que. The menu consisted of an assortment of chicken and pork ribs along with potato salad, baked beans and fresh garden salad with vinaigrette dressing. Home made rolls and butter were also available to those not counting calories.

The event started promptly at 6:00pm and the lobby and back patio filled up fast as both legal eagles and patrons alike, lined up for food and a cool beverages after work.

This year's event featured live performances by an assortment of local bands, along with internationally-famous DJ Jamesen Re spinning throughout the evening. Event guests were treated to a promotional music CD of Tim Draper's newly released song, "Take My Money", which is about the changing global economy, and the government's response to the economic downturn. In addition to the music, there were a bevy of beautiful Go-Go Dancers shaking it to to the music.
All proceeds will go to Children's Hospital of Los Angeles and The BizWorld Foundation.
