Title: First Boston Bitcoin Meetup -- Dec 1 Post by: ben-abuya on November 24, 2012, 05:57:50 PM https://i.imgur.com/VQDwQ.jpg
The Boston Liberty Drinks group together with the Shire Bitcoin Meetup folks from New Hampshire are launching the first Boston meetup. We expect to have a lot of great bitcoiners here, including the guys from the MIT Bitcoin Club. If you're anywhere in the area, we'd love to have you. Reply in the thread or PM me for more details. The meetup will be at the Cambridge Common pub in Cambridge, MA. https://i.imgur.com/uaZBE.png (http://goo.gl/maps/ClYed) http://goo.gl/maps/ClYed (http://goo.gl/maps/ClYed) The Facebook event is here: http://www.facebook.com/events/512450525439790/ (http://www.facebook.com/events/512450525439790/) Title: Re: First Boston Bitcoin Meetup -- Dec 1 Post by: ben-abuya on December 02, 2012, 05:45:27 PM The first Boston Bitcoin meetup was a huge success! We had about 30 people from the Boston area and New Hampshire, and made some great connections. We're already planning the next stage of projects. We filled up all three tables in the picture, plus the bar to the right, and the standing area in front of the kitchen.

The manager later came up to us and apologized, and we're going to set up a meeting to try to talk him into taking bitcoins at the bar. https://i.imgur.com/xPEae.jpg |
