Do they have any plan to launch this type of events in KL? Really want to meet more Web2.0 ppl.

Thanks Liew for publicizing this event! True to the Web 2.0 theme, we’ve only relied to webbies like you, me, and a few others to spread out the words - no banners on the streets, no radio ads, no PR in mainstream media, no letters to government agencies, companies etc. All online (plus emails of course), and it worked, 100+ ppl signed up in a few short days.
Let’s see how the Penang one goes, and I’d think that similar event will spread out to KL etc. soon. After all, the Ruby crowd seems to grow fast in Klang valley. Already got an interest to even bring it to Melaka too.

I would like to see this event held in KL too. So far I’ve seen some ROR and Flash actionscript projects heading my way. Would like to network with those who are good in them.
