Beer and unit tests on Tuesday night

"You go to conferences and hear how much you have to learn, and then you talk to guys in your own community and realize how much you have to share..."


The first Central.Coat IT nerds event was last Tuesday night and it turned out pretty well. While we didn't have 400 people beating down the doors we did get to discuss how we grow this idea into a sustainable community. 

For example we will focus our next event on agile software development and Scrum and where it is on the Central Coast.  This should be an interesting talk for all IT teams regardless of platform. 

And we should have flyers for the next local computer fair. 

Anyway, thanks.to the guys that came, and a special thanks to Peter Drew from the Newcastle Coders Group who shared his advice from their own startup phase.
