Our next meetup is on Wednesday!
Yahoo! Latin America hosts us again at their cool Coral Gables offices and we’ve got great presentations lined up:
- Alexandra Leite will describe what it’s like to work in global virtual teams;
- Jeffrey Sass of Myxer will talk about dealing with the complexities of mobile content;
- Jose from the Knight Foundation will present the Knight News Challenge Garage and give information on how you might win part of $5 million!
If we’re running on time, we’ll lead a discussion on “Steps to building your personal brand online.” Let us know about your experiences of what works … and what doesn’t!
Here are the details of the meetup:
When: Wednesday September 24th, 2008, 7:30pm – 9:00pm
Where: Yahoo! Latin America
Street: 1 Alhambra Plaza, Coral Gables, FL
RSVP: http://www.new.facebook.com/event.php?eid=36985634056
Here’s a Yahoo! map of the location.
Space will be limited to 75 people this time, so make sure to RSVP and to arrive promptly on time. Nearly 100 attended the last event, which caught us by surprise since there were more people than had confirmed. Please arrive early as we may not be able to accommodate more than 75 people.
We’ve set up a quick poll to record your preferences on where to hold RefreshMiami meetups. Please take a couple of seconds to choose you preference: http://tinyurl.com/3ov5d5
If you are interested in presenting at the October event or hosting the October event, please let us know.

Refresh May meetup at dotMarketing
Thursday, June 5th, 2008
Many thanks to Denise Jacobs and dotMarketing for hosting a great RefreshMiami meetup in May. We talked about developments in South Florida’s burgeoning tech community and then learned about website accessibility.
Thanks also to Victoria Edwards from the Collins Center for Public Policy, who presented her upcoming free Conference on Universal Access, on June 23rd. She is also setting up a volunteer program (Facebook link) for tech savvy people looking to give back and help bridge the divide in South Florida.
Since the meetup was in Coconut Grove, we continued the conversation over dinner and drinks at Jaguar’s.
