london geek dinner with hugh macleod and robert scoble, december 7th, 2007

[This is just a rumor at the moment…]

[Bonus Link] Great post on Mic­ro­Bran­ding from John­nie Moore:

“It’s all an expe­ri­ment.“
My own take on mic­ro­bran­ding is to rea­lise that small stuff mat­ters. Too many brands try to bash us over the head with their fixed pro­po­si­tions, values sta­te­ments, idea­li­sed lifesty­les etc etc. (And we’re just their cus­to­mers, think what it’s like for peo­ple who work there.)

    Given that I’m geeky enough to be more exci­ted about this than I would be about my birth­day the follo­wing week, I hope that means I’d be of suf­fi­cient geek sta­tus to attend should said din­ner become more than a rumor…

  2. James says:

    Yes please! Been nee­ding to geek out for some time.

    I know what you mean James, very exci­ting, loo­king for­ward to more info to come

  4. @James Parr — snap! My birth­day is also the follo­wing week, and I’m also more exci­ted at the pros­pect of this!
    If this does mate­ria­lise an invite would be a very wel­come early birth­day pressie…

  5. Rumor?
    Put it on Upcoming.org so we can all sign up and make this offi­cial! :-)

  6. Very enter­tai­ning blog. And inte­res­ting dood­les! :)

    I love the quote. There is enti­rely too much shit for the con­su­mer to wade through. By the time I’m stan­ding chest-deep in it, I want to have a com­pany that I can look in the eye (lite­rally) as it stands in the crap with me. Life’s messy — now which company’s going to get in there with me and start sho­ve­lling our way out?

  9. Aure­lius,
    You call the squig­gles “dood­les”.….?!
    OMIGAWD you is crazy. It is Aaaarght. Fabu­lous, wun­ner­ful aaarght my dah­link.
    As I said last year, Hugh is the only one I know that makes fuc­king beau­ti­ful fuc­king art from fuck-all!
    :0)

    Geek din­ner sounds like a bri­lliant idea and what a crowd! I’d love to be there! These days I don’t know if geek means hiding or sho­wing my VP of Mar­ke­ting busi­ness cards :)

  11. Jonathan says:

    Woah! The 7th? I might actually be in Lon­don at the same time as something hap­pens! Woohoo!
    On the other hand, I might be tra­ve­ling back North again that night. Which would figure.

  12. Ryan Coates says:

    Any more info on this yet fellow geeks?
